Mizzi Doubles and Gain a New Playlist

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

As we were doing our rounds of the tournament floor, we saw Phil Laak stood behind Sorel Mizzi. Mizzi was unaware of Laak's presence until Laak placed his headphones over Mizzi's head.

"That's really relaxing," said Mizzi, "What is it?"

Laak then placed the headphones on us so we could listen to the relaxing music for ourselves.

"It's the Dallas String Quartet," explained Laak, "If you need to know why I have so many chips it because of this music."

Laak then placed the headphones back on Mizzi just as Mizzi was about to act from the button.

"Oh! You're in a hand! You have to turn down the volume two notches otherwise the music won't help you win!"

Mizzi three-bet all in from the button and the original raiser called.

Mizzi: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Opponent: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

Mizzi paired his king on the {k-Spades}{6-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop and his hand stayed best as the turn and river fell {3-Clubs} and {5-Clubs}.

"Thanks, buddy. You come over here and I double. Can you send me your playlist?"

"I'll email it to you right away."

Mizzi now has 15,000 chips and a new playlist to listen to while playing poker.
