Mizrachi is no longer a full -time tournament player. He returned only to this WSOP, but there was no recurrence period for a person known as “The Grinder”. He just picked up where he left.
“I don’t need preparation. It’s like riding a bike. I have not played a tournament in a year. I just came back to the scene,” Mizrachi said after the set of the last table. “The last tournament I played was the last world series event that I won. I played a charity event one night, then I came back for it. And then I went mad from here.”

“Crazy” will rarely describe the night of Mizrachi. He doubled John Vasanock On one of the first hands of the day and less than 2,000,000, by putting a serious dent in your opportunities to score another run. But he again doubled with a few king Daniel echanaAce-ton, and came from behind with a flush on the river Braxton dunveHe was again against Dunve against two five Fives with King-Jack as the board gave him another flush on the river. He was finally with two queens for 17,800,000 Tony GregKi Nines.
Mizrachi could have barely stood up, lay down on the floor as the board ran away safely to earn another double. “The Grinder” was back into the business.
“Grinder, grinder,” and “Hall of Fame, Hall of Fame” mantra, played all over Horssho event center Throughout the day. With another PPC title and a repeat performance in the main event, Mizrachi should already prepare his acceptance speech for next year.
“I already felt that when I won the fourth PPC, this is just another level. If it doesn’t, just inspires me more. Don’t give it to me. I can do something crazy next year.”
Mizrachi finished fifth 2010But this year his position entering the final table is compared to 15 years ago.
“Last time, in 2010, I was seven out of nine years old. Now I am the second of the nine. So I am in a good place and I have a situation on a big stack, so I still like my position.”

I am living a dream that any poker player wants to live. I am celebrating a super celebration, but ever since we have made it, you know, let’s focus on,” he said.
Undudog Vasanock Chip seizes the lead

Mizrachi and Martes are looking at a person who wrote a fairy tale story in this main event. John Vasanock It will be easy to ignore the grinder and homegam heroes that make the main event field.

So I play the tournament when I come down. I have been playing some small programs in the last ten years either the world chain. I played once, ten years ago in the main event. It was a type of bucket list.”
Vasanock lacks the experience that Mizrachi, Margates and most other finalists, but are not counting themselves.
“I certainly have got a little more success, like crossing the finish line. I won three wins in small events this year and, I think I think I have some good experience to play shorthand and play it. So, you know, I know, I am very confident,” he said.
