Mizzi Uses the Power Check-Raise on a Dry Board

[user75032]

Sorel Mizzi limped into the pot preflop from the small blind, then called a raise to 150,000 by big blind Cliff Josephy. The flop did not look like an action flop -- {6-Clubs}

. Mizzi checked to Josephy, who led out for 225,000.

Mizzi eyed the bet carefully, then announced that he was raising the size of the pot -- 975,000! That raise put Josephy into the tank for well over a minute. He could be seen talking to himself and shaking his head slightly. He finally mucked his hand.
