Mizrachi Staying in Control

Omaha 8

Owais Ahmed limped the button and Michael Mizrachi checked his option before check calling a bet on the {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop. Mizrachi then led out on the {Q-Spades} turn and Ahmed made the call before both players checked the {K-Diamonds} river.

Mizrachi showed {A-}{Q-}{6-}{x-} for queens up and it was good for yet another pot, it's quite incredibly to see how quickly the momentum has switched from one way to the other over the last 30 minutes.

Mizrachi's Baby Flush Beats Ahmed's Even Smaller Flush

Omaha

Michael Mizrachi has picked up the last four pots in Omaha 8 and has suddenly moved back into a commanding position. The last of which saw both players check the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{J-Clubs} flop before Owais Ahmed fired on the {4-Spades} turn and {7-Clubs} river. Mizrachi showed {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a flush and amazingly Ahmed flashed what looked to be a smaller flush before sending it into the muck.

One Way Traffic, Ahmed Takes the Lead

Omaha 8

Owais Ahmed has really hit a purple patch right now since the break, he's winning virtually every pot. He called a raise in the big blind from Michael Mizrachi before check-calling the {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop. Both players then checked the {4-Diamonds} turn and Ahmed led out on the {10-Spades} river. Mizrachi folded and we have a new chip leader.

Ahmed the Non-Believer

Stud 8

Michael Mizrachi: {x-}{x-} / {A-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} {x-}
Owais Ahmed: {x-}{x-} / {6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{9-Spades} / {x-}

Mizrachi and Ahmed capped the pot on third before Mizrachi proceeded to bet every single street. Ahmed called him down and 'The Grinder' could only show {4-Spades}{5-Hearts}{x-} having bricked everything. Ahmed flipped {2-Spades}{5-Spades}{9-Hearts} for just a pair of nines and they were good to scoop the pot.
