Great start for Wisbrod as the flop came 9♠5♠2♦, but the A♠ on the turn put Laskowitz into the lead with a pair of aces, and Wisbrod was eliminated when the 3♣ hit the river.
David "ODB" Baker opened to 175,000 from under the gun and Joseph Sabe three-bet to 475,000 from the cutoff. Pat Lyons four-bet shoved for 1,460,000 and Baker went deep into the tank.
Several minutes went by before the clock was called. Baker folded before Sabe called with a covering stack to put Lyons at risk.
Pat Lyons: A♥K♣
Joseph Sabe: Q♥Q♠
Baker showed that he had folded J♣J♥ before the board ran out K♠6♥8♦3♣9♥. Lyons had made top pair with his king to secure a massive double through Sabe.
Joseph Sabe raised to 160,000 on the button and Joseph Beasy defended from the big blind. The flop came 6♥3♠2♣ and Beasy check-called a bet of 110,000 from Sabe.
The turn brought the J♥ and Beasy checked again. Sabe put together a bet of 380,000 and Beasy check-raised all in for around 950,000. Sabe snap-called and the cards were tabled.
Joseph Beasy: A♠9♣
Joseph Sabe: 6♣2♦
Sabe flopped two pair with his rags and Beasy was left drawing dead to the 3♥ on the river.
Michael Mizrachi pulled off an improbable run on Wednesday, taking down the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event for $10 million in the same year he won the $50,000 WSOP Poker Players Championship.
"The Grinder," now an eight-time bracelet winner, dusted off the competition on the final table's second day in just over his one-hour prediction. He first eliminated the smallest stack, Kenny Hallaert, the sixth-place finisher in 2016, on the first hand by winning a 60/40. Hallaert, a PokerStars Team Pro, took home $3 million.
Mizrachi then put the new smallest stack, Braxton Dunaway, all in with A♦10♦ and received a call from 10♥6♥. The best hand would hold up through the five community cards, and Dunaway was out in third place ($4 million) two hands into the session.

The flop came J♥5♠3♠ and Sabe was still in the lead with his pocket sixes. The Q♥ on the turn and the 5♦ on the river did not connect with Liu who was eliminated.
