Hand #144 - Rene Mouritsen Doubles Through Robert Mizrachi

Hand #144 - Rene Mouritsen has the button, he moves all in, and Mizrachi quickly calls with {A-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. Mouritsen shows {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, and he'll need to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes {K-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts}, and Mouritsen claps as he takes the lead with a pair of kings.

The turn card is the {4-Clubs}, the river card is the {4-Diamonds}, and Rene Mouritsen pounds his chest as he wins the pot with two pair, kings and fours. Mouritsen doubles up in chips.

Mizrachi shows 10-4-x-x for two pair, tens and fours, and Mouritsen shows K-10-x-x for a pair of tens.

Waiting for Heads-Up Play

The players are ready to go, but everyone is waiting for the bracelet to arrive. Robert Mizrachi has a 2.74-to-1 chip lead over Rene Mouritsen, but that's a smaller lead than it sounds like, as anything can happen in pot-limit Omaha.

There are 55 minutes and 37 seconds left in Level 23, with blinds at 80,000-160,000. If the players can somehow survive that long, the blinds would then increase to 100,000-200,000. It's hard to imagine it lasting very long at those blinds.
