Mizzi Makes a Million

Sorel Mizzi on Day 2c.
Sorel Mizzi on Day 2c.

With around 115,000 in the pot and a flop of {4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, Jamie Robbins checked and watched Sorel Mizzi bet 37,000. Robbins then woke up with a check-raised to 85,000, and called when Mizzi moved all in for 458,000.

Showdown
Robbins: {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Mizzi: {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Robbins was ahead with top pair, but Mizzi held a flush draw. The {10-Hearts} turn was not a club, but it did give Mizzi more outs. Even so, he was out of his seat and prepared to make a hasty exit as the dealer burned and put out the {8-Clubs}.

"Wow," Mizzi said quietly as he sat back down.

"I folded two clubs," John Phan said from across the table.

"Thanks for not telling me," Mizzi said as he raked in the pot, which put him right around one million.
