 One of the less interesting events for the general public: the $2500 Omaha/Seven Card Stud Hi-Low-8 or Better (Event 10) had his final table played yesterday. Chipleader starting the day was Farzad Rouhani. He has already been in this kind of spot before, finishing 2nd 2 years ago, and he’ll only be satisfied with the first place. The best known player and favourite for the title must have been Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi.
Seat 1- Yueqi Zhu - 87,000
Seat 2- Tom Chambers - 235,000
Seat 3- Greg Pappas - 304,000
Seat 4- Michael Mizrachi - 231,000
Seat 5- Daniel Mowczan - 122,000
Seat 6- John Racener - 180,000
Seat 7- John Cernuto - 285,000
Seat 8- Farzad Rouhani - 513,000
Zhu was the first player to double up, on the very first hand he managed to beat John Racener on Omaha-8, virtually swapping chipstacks because of it. Suprisingly Michael Mizrachi was the first to bust out, he didn’t manage to catch a low on the river during Stud-8, and he couldn’t beat Zhu’s pair of sixes either.
Farzad Rouhani was dominating the table with his aggressive play, increasing his chiplead and busting out players on the way. However, when he got heads-up with Tom Chambers he switched gears a bit and let him do the betting, while still keeping the chiplead and actually gaining more chips from it. On the last hand of the evening, Rouhani limps in preflop during Omaha-8, Chambers raises. Rouhani makes the call and the flop brings    . Chambers bets and Rouhani raises and they get all-in on the flop. Chambers shows:     , way behind Rouhani’s 3-of-a-kind:     . With the turn bringing an  it, the river doesn’t help Chambers: the  makes quads for Farzad Rouhani, who wins the event, his first bracelet and $232,911 !
