Mizrachi’s Reaction
Following his victory, Mizrachi expressed his satisfaction and confidence in his current form. “It feels great,” he said. “I’m playing my best game right now — probably better than ever. I’m so happy. I just want to focus and be there for my family and hopefully good things will happen.”
He noted the transition from a relaxed atmosphere on the previous day to a more intense and strategic final day. “We had to figure out [which games] we both agreed on and I was happy with my choices. I feel like I played my best game.”
Mizrachi also shared insights into his preference for Pot Limit games. “I like Pot Limit [games] because you can control the pot against a weaker player. He can’t really put pressure on you pre-flop, so you can see more flops and you can really control things post-flop. It’s a more skilled structure as opposed to No-Limit where he could just go all in on any hand and it becomes higher variance.”
Final Day Highlights
Starting as the chip leader, Mizrachi quickly extended his advantage. In a critical moment during a 2-7 Triple Draw hand, he almost eliminated Ryutaro Suzuki, who folded and was left with just 100,000 chips. Shortly after, Michael Martinelli knocked out Suzuki in a Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better round, but still faced a 2:1 chip deficit against Mizrachi in heads-up play.
Mizrachi continued to dominate, solidifying his lead with a scoop in Badeucey and further extending it in Pot-Limit Omaha. The decisive moment came in Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw, concluding the tournament within an hour.
With his latest bracelet secured, Mizrachi aims to continue his strong performance. “I’m going to try and play more [events] while I’m playing well,” he announced.
Both Michael Martinelli and Robert Mizrachi drew three cards initially. Martinelli bet the pot for 280,000, and Mizrachi called. On the next draw, Martinelli drew one card while Mizrachi drew two. Martinelli then bet the pot (840,000), and Mizrachi raised all-in. Martinelli called, drawing one card while Mizrachi stood pat.
Mizrachi’s pat hand was a perfect nine, putting pressure on Martinelli’s final draw. Confidently, Mizrachi signaled his victory before Martinelli revealed a pair with his last card, confirming Mizrachi’s win.
