Plunder for Pescatori After All

Max Pescatori

It was a fairly disgusting end to today's tournament for Michael "the Grinder" Mizrachi. He started the hand with rolled-up queens and found a customer in the short form of Max "the Italian Pirate" Pescatori. By fifth street, Pescatori had not improved on his split tens, but he caught a second pair of treys on sixth street. Mizrachi had not improved on his queens but was still comfortably in the lead.

With probably about 30,000 or 40,000 in the pot, they went to the river, with Mizrachi all in. Pescatori pulled a third ten to make tens full, leaving Mizrachi looking for a pair of his own to stave off elimination. He didn't find it, finishing the hand with trip queens. Pescatori dragged the pot to increase his count to 71,000; Mizrachi is out.
