Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Michael Mizrachi opened in late position for 550 and the player on the button raised to 1,350. The action folded back around to Mizrachi and he called.

The flop hit {2-Clubs} {10-Spades} {4-Clubs}, Mizrachi checked and the button bet 1,450. Mizrachi called and the turn fell the {7-Hearts}. Again, Mizrachi checked and the button bet 2,650. Mizrachi called and the river card was the {8-Spades}. Mizrachi checked a third time and the player on the button decided to check as well.

The hands were tabled and the button player held {Q-Clubs} {5-Clubs} for a busted flush draw and Mizrachi turned over {A-Spades} {10-Hearts} for top pair. Mizrachi won the sizable pot and has his stack near 70,000.
