Day 4 Completed

An old school game deserves an old school bracelet winner, and a fitting one emerged in $1,500 Seven-Card Stud as Eli Elezra joined the ranks of four-time bracelet winners, banking $93,766.

He joined a list that includes legends of the game like Bobby Baldwin and Puggy Pearson as well as more modern dominators like Shaun Deeb, Brian Rast and the Mizrachi brothers.

It's Elezra's third bracelet in a stud variant and his second in this event, which he also won in 2015 for $112,591. He felt so confident going into the tournament that he said he predicted victory on a recent vacation.

"When we went to Cabo, I told my buddies, I'm gonna win a bracelet this year and I'm gonna win it in stud," Elezra proclaimed.

Elezra said his vast experience in stud gave him a wealth of confidence going into the final table.

"I saw more [stud] hands than everyone who played with me," Elezra said. "And as I say, stud loves me back."

In fact, Elezra had to contend with some fellow mixed-game veterans as Scott Seiver, Rep Porter and David Singer all made the final table. However, although the latter two made the streamed final six, none had any chips to work with.

Elezra, on the other hand, ran like hot fire at the end of Day 3 to bring in a mountain of chips along with Anthony Zinno, while everyone else ranged from ultra-short to middling. Elezra wasn't shy about admitting how heavily the deck was stacked in his favor in that Day 3 surge.

"Out of eight hands, I make six straights and I pick up aces. So, it's brainless. Once you make straights against people who have two pair or whatever, you're gonna get huge chips."

Get a huge stack he did, and it seemed inevitable the bracelet would come down to him against Zinno heads up. While Valentin Vornicu hung tough for awhile and battled three-handed, that's exactly what occurred when Elezra finished him off a few hours into the final table.

Heads up
The expected heads-up match saw both players trade leads.

While Zinno has shown himself to be a solid competitor at the WSOP even away from his pet no-limit events, Elezra highlighted the vast difference in their stud experience.

"He's one of the best players out there but I told him he's short, I'm about 30 years above him in stud," Elezra said with a smile. "He just started playing about five years ago in stud."

Zinno proved a tough out as he battled from a sizable deficit into the lead. The match lasted several hours and involved several trades of the lead.

Elezra admitted he felt a little pressure and got a bit steamed up when Zinno evened things up and then edged past him. He had to calm himself and trust what he called his old-school instincts.

"I still got it here," he said, patting his gut. "I still got the feeling about hands and that's how I know when to fold and when to go with it."

Indeed, many of the most decisive hands of what was otherwise a slow match involved Elezra picking off Zinno's bluffs. About four hours into the back-and-forth battle, Elezra ended it when both players had straight draws on fourth street. Elezra made his six-high straight while Zinno bricked out a Broadway draw.

Anthony Zinno and Eli Elezra
Elezra and Zinno embraced after the long heads-up match.

The two friendly competitors shared a warm embrace and Elezra complimented Zinno's budding stud skills before hustling off to play the stud hi-lo event.

"I think in the end, I was mostly lucky because Anthony's a really good player," he said.

Anthony Zinno Eliminated in 2nd Place ($57,951)

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Anthony Zinno Eli Elezra
Anthony Zinno Eli Elezra

Anthony Zinno completed with the {k-Spades} and Eli Elezra called with the {4-Hearts}. On fourth, Zinno got the {j-Hearts} and Elezra the {3-Spades}. They evidently both liked these cards as a raising war ensued until Zinno was all in for 280,000.

Zinno: {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}/{k-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Elezra: {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}/{4-Hearts}{3-Spades}

It was open-ended against open-ended but Zinno had the edge with his Broadway draw. However, no waiting for Elezra as he found the {2-Diamonds} right away while Zinno caught a brick in the {2-Clubs}. Elezra got the {4-Diamonds} and Zinno the {q-Diamonds} for a worthless pair, so it came down to the final card. Elezra was happy to grab one of Zinno's outs in the {a-Clubs}. Zinno spun the {5-Spades} into the middle, bricking out to send the bracelet to Elezra.

Two Small Pots for Elezra, One Large One for Zinno

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Eli Elezra won the first two hands after the restart by putting in the 50,000 complete bet and winning them there and then. When Anthony Zinno took his turn doing this, Elezra made the call. Elezra called another bet on fourth street, but gave up when Zinno bet 100,000 on fifth.

Zinno: {x-}{x-}/{9-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Elezra: {x-}{x-}/{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} (folded)

Some Chips Return to Zinno

Anthony Zinno
Anthony Zinno

Anthony Zinno has saved his stack from dropping below five big bets by winning the last hand that made it past the initial street. With {x-}{x-}/{q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{q-Spades} showing, he bet, just as he did on the previous street. Elezra, however, did not call this time, throwing away his {x-}{x-}/{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} hand.

Zinno Falls Further

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Anthony Zinno completed with the {9-Diamonds} but was faced with a raise by Eli Elezra, who had the {7-Spades}. Zinno's board ran out strongly but he folded to continued aggression once the big bets took effect.

Zinno: {x-}{x-}/{9-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Elezra: {x-}{x-}/{7-Spades}{q-Hearts}{2-Clubs}

Zinno has dropped to near the 500,000 and needs to get some momentum soon.
