2010 WSOP Update: Robert Mizrachi Leads Player’s Championship Final Table


The Brothers Mizrachi have frequently shown the nuts on their march to the $50k Player's Championship final table.

We more or less took Memorial Day off (gotta rewatch this & this), but here’s a brief recap on the latest 2010 WSOP happenings.

:: Event #2 ($50,000 Player’s Championship) - The obviously huge story here is that both Brothers Mizrachi have made the final table. Does ESPN give their IRS troubles any air-time during the player feature profiles? Robert is the chip leader stacked at 3,125,000. David Baker is second overall with 3,095,000. The best twitter account name in poker, LuckboxJuanda‘s John Juanda, is third with 2,620,000. Feels like Juanda should win this one. The Grinder is fifth, stacked at 2,175,000.

This Guy’s Brother Leading WPT World Championship


Michael_grinder_mizrachi

While donning a RawVegas.tv lid didn’t do much for Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi‘s karma yesterday at the 2008 WPT World Championship at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, his brother had a helluva day.

Robert Mizrachi stormed to a huge chip lead, ending the day stacked at 523,200. He’s trailed by Jayde Tran, a woman, with 406,700.

Only 188 remain going into Day 3 play. Defending champ Carlos Mortensen is among the big stacks with 371,600. Some other big name big stacks include Kenny Tran (367,400), Michael Gracz (364,800), Marcel Luske (325,200), Tom Schneider (288,000), Joe Sebok (278,100), Gus Hansen (246,000), our favorite scarf-wearing Euro Dario Minieri (220,000), and the spectacularly breasted J.C. Tran (201,300). Our perennial pick to win it, Huck Seed, is still alive with 71,000.
