Mirzickinian Starts Out Hot
Level 3
: 0/0, 300 ante
Shota Nakanishi bet 2,800 preflop before action folded to Warwick Mirzikinian who had just sat down for his first hand. He moved all in for 20,000. Nakanishi began to think.
"First hand! Fun game. All in first hand," said Mirzikinian. "They call me flipper, flipper, flipper, faster than lightning," sang the Aussie. Nakanishi called, and Mirzikinian's song assessed the situation perfectly.
Warwick Mirzikinian: 
Shota Nakanishi: 
The board ran out 
and Mirzikinian flipped to a quick double to get his tournament started.
