Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

In the 920th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Ben Ludlow are all at Level 9 Studios in Las Vegas to talk a little but about WSOP champ and the most recent member of the Poker Hall of Fame Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi, who actually sat down with Chad at the Venetian to talk about his new "Grinder's Game" cash game and the upcoming World Tournament of Slots (WTOS).

They then discuss David Coleman winning the Poker Masters purple jacket, Jason Koon's bad beat, Shaun Deeb capturing his WSOP bracelet, and other winners from the WSOP Europe. Speaking of winners, Jeremy Gaubert took down the RGPS Grand Prix New Orleans, Josh Arieh and Nick Palma both won online bracelets, and Bridget Johnson was victorious in the RPT Tri-State Poker Championship.

Finally, Chad reveals another code word for this year's NAPT Gold Pass giveaway valued at $10,000, and goes one-on-one with Chris Bilinsky, a Gold Pass winner who's already booked his ticket to Las Vegas. There are not many up for grabs this year, so you won't want to miss out on this limited opportunity to win one just by listening to the PokerNews Podcast and MSPT Podcast Presented By PokerNews.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Giorgos Onisiforou raised his 2♥2♦ to 50,000 on the button. Small blind Tom-Aksel Bedell fancied a flop with A♦3♥ and made the call.

Onisiforou bet 35,000 on the Q♦4♦8♣ flop, seeing Bedell check-call. The A♥ turn made Onisiforou size up to 75,000. Bedell was not going anywhere, flicking in more calling chips.

The 4♣ river completed the board. Bedell decided to lead out for 125,000, causing Onisiforou to add his ducks to the muck.
