Robert Mizrachi has done it! After doubling up heads-up opponent Rene Mouritsen three times in a row, Mizrachi was able to get all the chips in the middle one last time, making the best hand and sending Mouritsen to the rail in second.
Rene raised the pot from the small blind and Robert made the call. The flop came Q

and after a check from Mizrachi, Mouritsen bet out. Mizrachi then raised, enough to put Mouritsen all-in, and Rene made the call. The two players are on their feet as they turn over their hands.
