Hall edges out Mizrachi to win UB Aruba Poker Classic

Robert Mizrachi has been having a very tough year on the tournament circuit this year, but all that changed when he arrived in Aruba. Mizrachi held the chip lead after day 2, 3, and 4 of the event and was still the chip-leader going into heads-up play with Brandon Hall.
However, Hall was able to overcome Mizrachi’s hot-streak, and beat the poker pro to capture the Aruba title. According to Poker-King.com, Mizrachi and Hall cut a deal to chop the prize-money at the beginning of heads-up play: Mizrachi received an unspecified amount more than Hall, and $60,000 was set aside for the actual winner of the event –giving the two players something to play for.
Here are the complete results for the final table (not including the deal that was made):
1. Brandon Hall $753,330
2. Robert Mizrachi $414,680
3. Chase Steely $218,860
4. Eric Baldwin $126,710
5. Jose Santos $92,150
6. Brock Parker $66,810
7. Matthew Ross $41,470
