The Grinder Defends Title, Blind

Level 1
Michael Mizrachi
Michael Mizrachi

Omaha-8

Michael Mizrachi is here. "The Grinder" is not only trying to defend his 2012 victory in this event, but also to win his third Poker Players' Championship in four years.

Just now came an Omaha-8 hand in which George Lind III raised the button and Mizrachi defended from the small blind. The pair saw the flop come {3-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Mizrachi check-raised a bet from Lind and Lind called, then when Mizrachi led at the {A-Hearts} turn, Lind stepped aside.

Mizrachi showed one of his hole cards — the {5-Hearts} — and Allen Kessler commented from across the table that he'd folded a hand containing the other three fives.
