Mizrachi Busts Another; Takes Back the Chip Lead

Another hand, another episode of the Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi show. That's just how this event has been going. In this segment, Mizrachi busted Ben Roberts, the longtime English pro.

Erich Kollmann started things off with a raise from under the gun to 1,100. Roberts reraised from the next seat to 4,000 and action folded to Mizrachi in the big blind. He called, as did Kollmann.

The flop came down {J-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Mizrachi led for 4,100. Kollmann folded, but Roberts reraised all in for around 10,000. Mizrachi beat him into the pot.

"I've got a pair and a straight draw," said Mizrachi while revealing the {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades}. Roberts then turned up the {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs} for a pair of aces and blockers to Mizrachi's straight draw.

The turn was the {J-Hearts} before the river completed the board with the {4-Hearts}. The river four gave Mizrachi a full house and he was able to win the pot to eliminate Roberts.

With that pot, Mizrachi moved himself back into the chip lead.
