Event 18: Robert Mizrachi Wins!

$1,650 Six-Max Dealer’s Choice (Freeze-Out)
Level 17:  1,000/2,000/300 ante
Game:  Pot-Limit Omaha

After Bradley Ruben doubled up in No-Limit Hold’em, Robert Mizrachi switched the game to Pot-Limit Omaha, and regained control of the momentum.

Mizrachi won a good-sized pot on a board of 10-9-4-5-5 when his-A-10-7-5 made a runner-runner full house. That gave Mizrachia  3-to-1 chip lead, and then he continued to pull in small pots to quickly take it to 5-to-1.

After a flop of Jh9s3d, Ruben got it all in. Here were their hands.

Robert Mizrachi:  Ah9d8c3h  (two pair, nines and threes)
Bradley Ruben:  KhKdJd8h  (overpair)

Ruben needed to improve to stay alive, but the turn was the Ac, the river was the Qs, and Mizrachi won the pot — and a SHRPO trophy — with two pair, aces and nines.
