It has been quite a year for Robert Mizrachi. He started off the year taking forth place and $409k in the WPT Carribean Adventure, two weeks later he got his expenses back at the WPT in Tunica. Not satisfied with this he travelled to Vegas, took 6th and $32K in the $2,500 HORSE event and 5th ($49K) in the $5,000 HORSE event.

One could be forgiven for asking where his first place finish at the WSOP is, well folks he has finally done it! Today Mizrachi hit the big time winning the WSOP World Championship Pot-Limit Omaha (Event 50). And for his troubles? A mere $768,889 in prize money.

The final hand saw Mizrachi move allin with a set of nines which was called by Rene Mouritsen’s diamond flush draw. There was no help on the turn or river for Mouritsen who took second place and $464,877 for his efforts.

Very much worth note was Patrik Antonius third place and $311,394… So Orla that will be pints of Champaigne for you then
