No-Limit Hold'em

Michael Mizrachi raised to 225,000 from the button, John Hennigan three-bet to 750,000 from the big blind and Mizrachi called.

The flop came down {Q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts} and Hennigan continued for 700,000. Mizrachi raised to 2,000,000, Hennigan reraised all in for about 5,300,000 and Mizrachi called instantly with {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a pair of nines with a flush draw. Hennigan held {J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for an open-ended straight draw.

As the Mizrachi section hollered calling for a heart, the {10-Hearts} turn fell to give Mizrachi a winning flush, rendering the {8-Diamonds} river (and Hennigan's straight) moot.

John Hennigan finished in second place for $765,937.
