'The Grinder' Doubles Through Selbst

Michael Mizrachi has just doubled through Vanessa Selbst after his pocket queens were able to fend off Selbst's club flush draw.

The pair got it all in on a flop of {2-Clubs} {2-Spades} {6-Clubs}; Mizrachi with {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts} and Selbst with {A-Clubs} {4-Clubs}. Needing an ace or a club to finish Mizrachi off, Vanessa watched the turn and river blank out {8-Diamonds}, {9-Spades} giving the pot and the chip lead to Mizrachi.

After the hand, Vanessa was left with 140,000 in chips to Mizrachi's 500,000.
