A Memorable Summer 2025
Mizrachi joins GGPoker following one of the most dominant seasons poker has ever seen. In the summer of 2025, he won the $10,000 Main Event at the World Series of Poker, taking home $10,000,000 and claiming his eighth WSOP bracelet. He also secured an unprecedented fourth victory in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship, cementing his status as the undisputed king of mixed games.
As if that weren't enough, his exceptional achievements led to his induction into the Poker Hall of Fame during the final ceremony of the Main Event, an honor reserved for the game's greatest players. But that’s not where his successes end—it’s now official that he’s joining the GGPoker team!
Signing “The Grinder” is more than just a PR title. GGPoker gains a player with over two decades of top-level experience and unrivaled expertise in mixed games. We can expect thrilling high-stakes action, exclusive online challenges, and an even more vibrant community around GGTeam. Mizrachi will also immediately engage in representing the brand at major live events worldwide—and when circumstances allow, we'll see him in online action directly on GGPoker.
Why GGPoker?
“Joining GGPoker is the most logical step in my career. After winning the Main Event and being instantly inducted into the Hall of Fame, I was looking for a partner that matches my ambition, and GGPoker is simply the future of the game. I am ready to represent GGPoker globally and bring my passion to the online tables,” stated Michael Mizrachi.
GGTeam leader Daniel Negreanu also welcomed the new addition: “Michael Mizrachi is poker royalty. Achieving the ‘Double’—winning both the Poker Players Championship and the Main Event in one summer—is a feat we may never witness again. Such a giant undoubtedly belongs in GGTeam.”
