Grinder Gone

Phil Hellmuth started the action by raising in early position to 1,000. Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi was next to act, and he moved all in for 4,200 more. It was back to Hellmuth, and after thinking for 10 seconds, Mizrachi said "come on Phil let's gamble!" That seemed to work for Hellmuth, as he tossed in the call.

Hellmuth drew two, while Mizrachi stood pat, and tabled {j-}{9-}{8-}{6-}{2-}. Hellmuth showed {8-}{7-}{2-}, and would need help to secure the knockout. The first card he rolled over was a {10-}, giving him a nine, six, five, four, or three for outs to win the pot. "Oh my god I got there" said Hellmuth as he rolled over a {4-}. "Unbelievable" Mizrachi said in a half joking half not joking manner as he headed to the rail.
