Glaser Mucks Sixth

Level 23 : 120,000/240,000, 0 ante

Stud

Michael Mizrachi completed with the {9-Spades} and called a raise from Benny Glaser on his left, showing {k-Hearts}. "Grinder" picked up an {a-Diamonds} and came out betting on fourth but both players checked fifth.

Michael Mizrachi: {x-}{x-}/{9-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Benny Glaser: {x-}{x-}/{k-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Mizrachi fired again on sixth and that convinced Glaser to give up his hand.
