Grinder Putting Distance between himself and the Field

It does not seem to matter how many people are in a pot versus Michael Mizrachi. In a recent limp pot with six players we found Mizrachi calling a bet from the Big Blind on a flop of {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. Seeing that "The Grinder" was indeed going to see a turn the other four players folded.

After the {A-Diamonds} turn the big blind checked to Mizrachi who then put a bet out. The big blind folded and Mizrachi added more chips to his growing mountain.

Choppin' Up and Chippin' Up

Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi is crushing souls left right and center and we almost witnessed another victim being sent to the rail, but fortunately the poker gods showed some mercy this time around.

The player in the UTG +1 position raised to 800 preflop and the action folded around to Mizrachi who was the only caller from the small blind, making it heads-up to the flop of {8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}. Mizrachi checked, letting the UTG +1 player led out for 2,500, but he came back with a check-raise of 5,000 total. The opponent snap-shoved and Mizrachi insta-called.

Mizrachi: {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}

The turn and river blanked out {4-Spades}, {3-Clubs} - chop it up!

Apparently Grinding is Easy

Livello 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Michael Mizrachi opened in late position for 550 and the player on the button raised to 1,350. The action folded back around to Mizrachi and he called.

The flop hit {2-Clubs} {10-Spades} {4-Clubs}, Mizrachi checked and the button bet 1,450. Mizrachi called and the turn fell the {7-Hearts}. Again, Mizrachi checked and the button bet 2,650. Mizrachi called and the river card was the {8-Spades}. Mizrachi checked a third time and the player on the button decided to check as well.

The hands were tabled and the button player held {Q-Clubs} {5-Clubs} for a busted flush draw and Mizrachi turned over {A-Spades} {10-Hearts} for top pair. Mizrachi won the sizable pot and has his stack near 70,000.

Min-Raise Bluff?

We were able to get John-Robert Bellande's table just as the dealer flipped the turn to reveal a board of {2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. Bellande's opponent then fired out a bet of 2,000. Bellande tanked for awhile before he ultimately put out a min raise.

Bellande's opponent folded, much to the delight of Jean-Robert who claimed he had just min-raised bluffed the player.

Bansi Beaten

The action folded around to Praz Bansi who raised to 550 from the button; the player in the big blind was the only caller, but both the big blind and Bansi checked down the board of {Q-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{2-Spades}.

The big blind player showed {Q-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Bansi tossed his hand into the muck.

Bardah Busted

Facing a raise Ronnie Bardah moved all-in for his remaining stack. The player behind Bardah then moved in, and both players were called by the initial raiser.

Bardah {K-}{Q-}
Early Position Player {A-} {K-}
Late Position Player {A-}{Q-}

Bardah was in bad shape and needed some of Lady Luck's assistance. The cards came out {10-}{9-}{10-}{7-}{3-}, giving the player in early position the best hand with Ace-King high. Bardah along with the player in late position were eliminated.
