Razz

"Why don't we just rotate them?" asked Robert Mizrachi before selecting the game, suggesting to go through each game instead of sorting through the plaques and choosing a new game every two hands. "It's easier that way."

Schaff shook his head.

"No," Schaff calmly replied. "Maybe in a little bit if I get bored. Let's play razz."

No-Limit Hold'em

Playing Shane Abbott's choice, the "Cadillac of Poker," Robert Mizrachi opened for 21,000 on the button. Abbott jammed for roughly 165,000 in the small blind, and Mizrachi snap-called, throwing into the middle. Abbott's needed a lot of help, and the flop was nothing but bad news. Even worse: the turn to give Mizrachi quads. The river was a mere footnote, and the man affectionately called "Moose" by his friends was banished back to the woods.
