Mirzachi Rivers Lamb

Limit Hold'em

Just as the rest of the players were heading off on break, this hand was finishing up between Ben Lamb and Robert Mizrachi.

Action folded to Mizrachi in middle position and he raised. Ben Lamb reraised from the small blind and Mizrachi called. The flop came down {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts} and Lamb bet out. Mizrachi raised and Lamb called.

The turn was the {2-Spades} and Mizrachi bet after Lamb checked. Lamb thought it over for a little bit and then made the call.

The river completed the board with the {K-Diamonds} and Lamb checked. Mizrachi bet right away and Lamb tanked. He eventually made the call.

Mizrachi showed the {K-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a rivered pair of kings after flopping a straight draw. Lamb thought he won for a moment and exposed his {A-}{Q-}, but then caught that Mizrachi had paired his kings on the river and angrily tossed his hand into the muck face down.
