Michael Mizrachi - The Grinder - Poker Legend
|
Michael Mizrachi, known to poker players as "The Grinder", has started 2006 as the best tournament poker player in the world. His incredible results in World Poker Tour Events this year mark him as a poker legend of the future.
The Grinder began his poker career as an online poker player. His brother, Robert Mizrachi, was a highly successful online poker player so as the easily influenced little brother, Michael Mizrachi decided to follow suit. He started out playing small stakes limit hold'em at Paradise Poker before graduating to big online cash games at Poker Stars.
Michael Mizrachi started to attract national attention for his skillful poker play when he made it to the final table in back-to-back World Poker Tour events. He finished 5th in the World Poker Open and the following week he won the LA Poker Classic. This year he has performed even more spectacularly on the WPT stage. He finished 2nd at the final table of a world poker tour event, and then won the next tournament! He is currently (as of February 20, so early days still) leading the Card Player Poker Player of the year points standings. He leads by a mile as no one has come close to his no-limit poker tournament record this year.
The Grinder is still only 25 years old (he turned 25 in January this year) and has an incredibly bright future ahead of him as a poker player. His online poker experience shows through when he takes on top tournament players, because he is able to mix up his game and is not afraid to play super-aggressively in the right spots.
Michael Mizrachi is married - his wife Aidiliy is always in the stands watching him play (extremely pretty girl, by the way), and they also have a young son. Life looks very promising for The Grinder, who is well on his way to becoming one of the top tournament poker players in the world!
