Hand #27 - Vladimir Schmelev

Hand #25 - David Oppenheim

Hand #24 - Michael Mizrachi
Michael Mizrachi has the button in Seat 6. John Juanda raises to 120,000 and Mizrachi reraises to 325,000. Juanda folds and Mizrachi wins the pot.
GRIND-AH
"Grind-ah! Grind-ah!" chanted Michael Mizrachi's mom, along with his wife Lily Elviro as he took down that last pot. As expected, the Mizrachis have been quite a vocal cheering squad and break into wild screams and cheers whenever one of the brothers earns some chips.
After that last display of...enthusiasm, however, Grinder gave a bit of an eye-roll in their general direction, much like high school athlete might to his overzealous parents in the stands.
Hand #23 - Michael Mizrachi
The button is with Daniel Alaei in Seat 5. Play folds around the table to Michael Mizrachi who completes from the small blind. David Oppenheim checks his option in the big blind.
The flop arrives 
and Mizrachi leads out for 55,000 to take it down.
Another chant breaks out and some fans are even on their feet. We fear what might happen if Grinder wins a pot worth more than just the blinds and antes!

John Juanda has the button in Seat 4. Vladimir Schmelev opens for 110,000 from the cutoff and John Juanda tanks for a moment before three-betting to 325,000. Schmelev folds and Juanda wins the pot.
