Minutes after taking his seat here in the Brasilia Room's Bronze section, Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi has chipped up a bit, with Yevgeniy Timoshenko serving as his victim.
Mizrachi raised his button to 400, and Timoshenko flatted from the big blind, bringing a flop of 
on board. Both players checked the flop, but Mizrachi took it down with a bet of 300 when the 
arrived on the turn.

With the late registration period ending just fifteen minutes ago, many of the game's most recognizable pros are just now taking their seats.
Multiple bracelet winners here at the World Series of Poker, John Juanda, Michael Mizrachi, Nick Schulman, and Daniel Negreanu have all arrived in the Brasilia Room to compete in today's four-handed tournament.
Before the break, we caught up to find Jennifer Tilly and an opponent looking at a board of 
with 1,600 already in the middle. Tilly checked the turn and her opponent fired 650. Tilly announced a check-raise all in and and her opponent called, showing 
. He was, however, crushed by Tilly's 
for a flopped full house. The 
finished off the board and Tilly dragged in the pot.
Tilly was able to secure the double up and now sits at 5,200 in chips.
After running his stack up in Event #37 ($5,000 Limit Hold'em), Jason Mercier has decided to forgo the four-handed action here today.

Players are now on their second 20-minute break of the day.
We saw a huge pot developing between John Hennigan and two opponents, and eventually the man known as "Johnny World" was scooping the chips his way.
The flop had fallen 
and Hennigan checked to a player in the one seat, who fired a bet of 1,100 into the middle. Next to act, another player moved all in over the top, making it 2,875 to play. Hennigan asked for a count, and then rolled his calling chops into the pot. The original bettor flatted the all in as well, and the turn card came 
.
Hennigan then led out for 3,400, a bet which folded the remaining opponent and left "Johnny World" to show down with the all-in player, who just happened to hold 
. Hennigan turned over his 
, having flopped top pair and a flush draw, and wouldn't you know it, the 
completed the board on the river.
With his opponent understandably upset, World simply collected his new chips in silence, while a tablemate offered a "nice flop" from across the table.
