Michael Mizrahi Triumphs in Poker Competition at Wynn during WSOP Main Event's Eighth Day
In a historic moment at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP), American-Montenegrin poker player Michael Mizrachi clinched his fourth WSOP Poker Players Championship title, making him the only player in history to win the same major tournament four times.
The prestigious event, often considered the second most prestigious in the world, took place this summer at the Wynn Las Vegas. The tournament, a $600 No-Limit Hold'em event in the Wynn Summer Classic, attracted 137 entries, creating a prize pool of $70,555. Mizrachi, who was not multi-tabling during the tournament, emerged victorious, securing a payout of $19,049 after beating Rodruigo Cella heads-up.
Mizrachi's latest victory marks his record fourth win in the Poker Players Championship, having previously triumphed in 2010, 2012, and 2018. His 2010 win was particularly noteworthy as he also made it to the Main Event final table in the same year, a feat he achieved for the second time in his career.
The 47-year-old poker pro from Montenegro, who had just over $7,000 in live tournament cashes according to The Hendon Mob, is now aiming to become a world champion and win the $10 million first-place prize in the 2025 WSOP Main Event.
As the final table of the Main Event approaches, Mizrachi will enter as the second-highest stack, with John Wasnock leading the pack. Live coverage of the final table is available for those eager to follow Mizrachi's journey towards a potential world championship.
With seven gold bracelet wins to his name, Mizrachi's latest victory further cements his status as one of the greatest poker players of all time. As he prepares for the final stages of the Main Event, the poker world eagerly awaits to see if Mizrachi can add another historic achievement to his already impressive resume.
