WSOP Europe 2012: Michael Mizrahi's Dramatic Run and Notable Hands


The WSOP Europe 2012 is taking place in Cannes. Michael Mizrahi made it far in the third tournament, which was a pot-limit Omaha event with a buy-in of €5,300. Mizrahi lost a significant pot with A-A-x-x against A-A-x-x on the blinds 75-150.

Mizrahi had a notable hand against a Finnish player where he called with Kx Tx 9x 2x against the Finn's A-x. This hand showcased Mizrahi's aggressive and unpredictable style, which often leads to exciting moments in the tournament.

Mizrahi made a mistake by folding a set on the river, which was a rare occurrence for him. This mistake highlighted the unpredictable nature of poker, where even the best players can make costly errors. Despite this, Mizrahi declared he would finish the tournament by 3 PM, aiming to participate in about 90% of the hands. His aggressive play led to the elimination of Jason Merseir, who had a stronger hand but folded due to Mizrahi's pressure. Mizrahi's final elimination occurred when he called an all-in with Td 8s 6s 4c against Ac Kc Kh 7h, losing to a 9s on the river. This dramatic end to his run underscored the high-stakes and unpredictable nature of poker tournaments.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
