Where's James Richburg?

James Richburg chose an unusual time to take a break. There are a lot of people who take breaks during the razz portion, because it's their least favorite game. But Robert Mizrachi calls razz "Richburg's best game" -- he won the WSOP bracelet in razz last year.

Richburg returns to the table, missing just three or four hands.

Current Game: Razz

The game switches to razz, with a 2,000 ante and a 2,000 bring in. The completion is 8,000, and the limits are 8,000-16,000.

After this round of razz, the game will switch to seven card stud, and when that round is over the players will receive their dinner break.

Post-Hand Comments From Mrs. Schneider

After Tom Schneider's big hand, his wife had snuck under the rail to get a closer look, and she was still worried after the river card, even though he clinched it. Someone pointed out that he already had the nut. When the river card also gave him a low, someone said, and now he's got two nuts.

Happy that her husband is still alive in the tournament, Mrs. Schneider excitedly said, "I'll take two nuts!" Ali Eslami quipped, "You'll have to wait a bit -- he's busy."

Tom Schneider Scoops a 100K Pot

(Omaha Hi-Lo) James Richburg limps under the gun for 8,000, Tom Schneider raises to 16,000, Robert Mizrachi calls from the big blind, and Richburg calls. The flop comes {Q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, Mizrachi checks, Richburg bets 8,000, Schneider thinks for about 15 seconds before raising to 16,000, Mizrachi folds, Richburg reraises, and Schneider calls all in for 20,000.

Richburg shows {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for a pair of kings and a king-high flush draw. But Schneider dominates him with {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for a pair of aces, an ace-high flush draw, and a low draw.

The turn card is the {10-Hearts}, and Schneider clinches the pot with an ace high flush. The {3-Spades} on the river also gives him a qualifying low, but it doesn't matter. Schneider scoops the pot, building his stack to about 100,000 in chips.

Chris Bjorin Scoops Against Robert Mizrachi

With the final board showing {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} in a three-way pot, Chris Bjorin bets 16,000, Robert Mizrachi calls, and James Richburg folds. Bjorin shows {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, giving him a wheel (a five-high straight) to scoop both the high and the low sides of the pot. Mizrachi mucks in frustration, dropping down to 205,000 in chips. Bjorin now has over 575,000, and the chip lead.

Mizrachi's Fans Arrive

Two fans of Robert Mizrachi's show up on the rail -- his mother and his sister-in-law Aidily (wife of Michael 'The Grinder' Mizrachi). Mizrachi's mother sneaks under the ropes to give her son a kiss, causing him to blush slightly.
