Brewer Counterfeits Mizzi to Survive Near the Bubble
Nivel 17
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Chris Brewer raised to 80,000 on the button and Sorel Mizzi called in the big blind.
Brewer continued for 55,000 on the A♥Q♠9♥ flop, Mizzi moved all in, and Brewer called for 380,000.
Chris Brewer: K♠K♥ 
Sorel Mizzi: Q♦9♦
Brewer showed down a pair of kings, but Mizzi had outflopped him with two pair as Brewer was left one card away from elimination near the money bubble as the 4♣ fell on the turn. The river was the A♠ and Brewer made a higher two pair to win the pot and double up, leaving Mizzi nursing a short stack.
