Don't Bluff Mizzi

When we joined the action, the pot was heads-up with about 85,000 chips in the middle of the table. The board showed {9-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {7-Spades} {9-Spades}, and Antoine Saout fired a bet of 56,000 at the pot.

His lone opponent was Sorel Mizzi, and Mizzi went into the tank as he cut out the calling chips and shuffled them between his fingers. After several curious glances in Saout's direction, the chips went into the pot.

Saout quickly mucked, and Mizzi showed his good-enough {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} to take that sizable pot with just his naked ace-high. A wave of surprise worked its way around the table as the other players assessed what they had just seen. Matt Marafioti finally piped up with a sort of backhanded compliment:

"I feel bad for this guy," he said pointing at Saout. "He makes sick bluffs and gets called by morons. And he gets sucked out on in the Main Event by idiots shoving with deuces. Sh***y life!"

Mizzi simply stacked his newfound chips quietly, finally looking up to smirk and quip, "Don't bluff me," to anyone still listening.

Mizzi is right around 400,000 after that pot, while Saout drops down to 202,000.
