Michael Mizrachi Finishes Historic Run with 2025 WSOP Main Event Title and $10 Million
Michael Mizrachi pulled off an improbable run on Wednesday, taking down the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event for $10 million in the same year he won the $50,000 WSOP Poker Players Championship.
"The Grinder," now an eight-time bracelet winner, dusted off the competition on the final table's second day in just over his one-hour prediction. He first eliminated the smallest stack, Kenny Hallaert, the sixth-place finisher in 2016, on the first hand by winning a 60/40. Hallaert, a PokerStars Team Pro, took home $3 million.
Mizrachi then put the new smallest stack, Braxton Dunaway, all in with A♦10♦ and received a call from 10♥6♥. The best hand would hold up through the five community cards, and Dunaway was out in third place ($4 million) two hands into the session.
