Mizrachi Grinding Hastings

Michael Mizrachi
Michael Mizrachi

Brian Hastings now has the shortest stack in this tournament after tangling again with Michael Mizrachi. On a board reading {K-Spades}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs} Hastings bet into "The Grinder" and he raised it up to 60,000. Hastings made the call and the dealer put the {Q-Diamonds} onto the river. Hastings checked, Mizrachi made a bet of 150,000 and after almost 90 seconds Hastings called.

Mizrachi: {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
Hastings: Mucked

Mizrachi is certainly in charge of this match.

Hairabedian Takes Chips From Powell

Brian Powell raised to 12,000 and Roger Hairabedian made the call. The pair saw the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{3-Clubs} make up the flop, neither player seemed too interested and they both checked. The {K-Hearts} turn was checked by Hairabedian, Powell bet 7,000 and his opponent called. Both players checked the {7-Diamonds} on the river.

Hairabedian showed the {K-Diamonds}, which was enough to win the hand but the dealer showed his second holdecard too, the {4-Diamonds}

Third Pair Good For The Grinder

Brian Hastings opened the betting with a raise to 15,000, a raise that Michael Mizrachi called quickly.

The dealer burned a card and put out the {4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. Mizrachi checked and Hastings checked behind. The turn was the {7-Spades} and Mizrachi lead into Hastings with a bet of 15,000 and Hastings made the call. The {J-Spades} on the river did not slow The Grinder and he bet 20,000. Hastings sat figuring out his options and he decided a raise to 90,000 was the best but he turned out to be wrong as Mizrachi instantly called and showed {7-Clubs}{5-Spades} whihc was the best hand.

Buchanan Gets Some Back

From the button, Shawn Buchanan raised to 12,000, and Anatolii Ozhenilok defended.

The flop brought {K-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {6-Clubs} and another bet of 12,000 from Buchanan, and Ozhenilok check-called. The {Q-Hearts} drew a pair of checks, and Ozhenilok took the lead on the river {J-Clubs}. He made it 21,000, and Buchanan considered carefully before calling.

Ozhenilok, and Buchanan tried to, but he had to show his {Q-Spades} {10-Diamonds} to win the pot.

Ozhenilok Takes the Lead

Anatolii Ozhenilok started his match as a more than 2:1 underdog, but he's not wasted any time gaining an edge.

In the last pot, there was already more than 150,000 in the middle when the river came down on a {9-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {9-Spades} {7-Clubs} {6-Spades} board. Ozhenilok was leading the betting, and he made it 50,000 to see his cards. Buchanan agonized over the call for a couple minutes, but he eventually stacked the chips out into the pot.

Ozhenilok tabled {2-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} for the boat, and Buchanan flashed his {9-Diamonds} as he mucked. It's the Belarusian with a small chip lead now.
