2024 WSOP Online: Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi Wins Sixth WSOP Bracelet
The dust has settled for good on the 2024 World Series of Poker as the results are in from the last few online bracelet events. Some players managed to use the dying moments of the summer to salvage an otherwise inconspicuous set of results over the past two months while others built on earlier successes to finish at a high point.
Mizrachi Makes it Six Bracelets to Move Back Past Brother
It has been five years since Michael Mizrachi won his fifth bracelet in a $1,500 Seven Card Stud event at the 2019 WSOP. In the interim, his brother Robert Mizrachi caught up to him in bracelet wins after taking down Event #13: $10,000 Dealer's Choice Championship towards the start of the series. Down to his very last chance of the year to retake the lead in Online Bracelet Event #30: $888 Crazy Eights Encore, the Grinder found a win after surviving a 931 strong field to scoop $108,815 to go along with his sixth bracelet.
The win sees Mizrachi move level with the likes of Shaun Deeb and Jason Mercier on the all time leaderboard. Eleven other players still sit ahead of him but after capturing five bracelets during the 2010s, should Mizrachi get on another heater, the number between him and the top spots will be sure to diminish.

Maor Completes Career Summer to Deny Seiver Single Series Bracelet Record
Daniel Maor outlasted a total of 134 competitors in Online Event #24: $10,000 WSOP Online Championship to win $330,263 and his first bracelet. The majority of the $1,279,700 prizepool was paid out to those who made the final table. Maor walked away with the largest slice after defeating Wayne Harmon in heads-up play to continue his recent hot form. Just a couple weeks prior to this tournament, Maor finished third in Online Event #12: $888 Crazy Eights while in June he took down the $3,500 BetMGM Championship for a career best $613,914.
Scott Seiver was another player who came into the final table riding a wave of momentum as he sought to win his fourth bracelet of the series, which would be a WSOP record. Unfortunately, the quest for the record ended in disappointment with Seiver finishing in third place. On a brighter note for the seven time bracelet winner, the result was still good enough to confirm his place atop the 2024 WSOP POY leaderboard.
