Hand #87 - Peter Jetten

Marty Smyth has the button in Seat 8. Peter Jetten is in the small blind, and he glances over at The Grinder before opening with a raise to 180,000. Mizrachi counts out calling chips and places them gingerly into the pot.

The flop comes {5-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}. Jetten bets 275,000 and Mizrachi folds.

That's Love

Michael Mizrachi has a small cheering section right near our media table -- a few friends and several members of his family, including his brother Robert. Any time Mizrachi is involved in a pot, they are on their feet; any time he wins, they applaud and cheer raucously, chanting "Grind-er! Grind-er! Grind-er!" One of his supporters just introduced herself to MC Robbie Thompson.

"Hi," she said. "I'm Grinder's mom."

Hand #85 - Michael Mizrachi

Michael Mizrachi has the button in Seat 4. He is first in, and he raises the minimum, making it 120,000 to dance. Marty Smyth calls from the big blind, and the two men go to the flop.

It comes {3-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}. Smyth checks, Mizrachi bets 120,000, and Smyth concedes the pot.

Hand #83 - Michael Mizrachi

Marty Smyth has the button in Seat 8. Peter Jetten calls from the small blind, and Michael Mizrachi checks his option.

The heads-up flop brings {A-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {J-Spades}. Jetten checks and Mizrachi bets out 65,000. That's enough to get Jetten to fold, shipping the small pot to The Grinder.

Hand #82 - Marty Smyth

Billy "The Croc" Argyros has the button in Seat 5. After two folds, Marty Smyth completes the small blind and Peter Jetten checks. The flop comes down {8-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {q-Hearts}. Both players quickly check to the turn, which falls {Q-Spades}. They both check again. The river card is the {A-Diamonds} and one more time, it goes check, check. Smyth is the only player with a queen in his hand; Jetten can't come up with anything that beats three queens. Smyth wins another one.

Hand #80 - Michael Mizrachi

Peter Jetten has the button in Seat 3. After Marty Smyth folds, Jetten calls. Michael Mizrachi then raises pot to 240,000, and Jetten calls again.

Flop: {3-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Mizrachi is first to act and bets pot, 540,000. Jetten goes into the tank, double-checking his cards once to see how they match up with the board. Apparently, they don't -- he mucks, allowing Mizrachi to collect the pot. Mizrachi shows A-K-K-J, including two diamonds.
