Mizrachi Holding Steady (Michael, That Is)
Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi has recovered somewhat after having been short-stacked earlier in the afternoon.
Just now he was involved in a hand in which he was in middle position and up against a player in the big blind. With the pot at about 45,000 and the board showing , his opponent fired a bet of 25,000, to which Mizrachi responded with a hefty reraise -- a tall stack of yellows (1000) topped by about eight oranges (5000). Before the chips could be counted out, Mizrachi's opponent released his hand.
Mizrachi has about 180,000 at present -- a good deal less than the current average (about 275,000), but plenty more than he had earlier today.
