The Grinder of the Graner

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

On a flop of {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, Stephen Graner checked from the small blind and the player in the big did the same. The under-the-gun player then bet 400 and Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi min-raised to 800 from middle position. Graner flatted, the big blind folded, and the under-the-gun player got out of the way.

Graner then check-called a bet of 1,525 on the {2-Hearts} turn before both players checked the {2-Diamonds} river. Mizrachi tabled the {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} for two pair, but Graner held a better two pair with the {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}.
