Absolute Poker Signs Michael Mizrachi aka 'The Grinder' to Its Roster of Leading Poker Pros

27 June 2006

Absolute Poker (http://www.absolutepoker.com), the fourth largest online poker website in the world, announced today that it has added Michael Mizrachi, aka 'The Grinder,' to its lineup of leading poker professionals. The Grinder, who is 25 years old, is currently ranked the number one poker player in the world according to poker industry authority CardPlayer.com. Mizrachi, having gained 4737 points and won over $2,061,406 this year alone, is on track to earn the title "Player of The Year."


"Absolute Poker is very excited to be working with The Grinder," said Mike Edwards, Absolute Poker marketing manager. "He's at the top of his game and we're thrilled to give our players exposure to the skill and expert advice he can pass on to them. A world-class player and a world-class poker site -- a perfect match."


"I'm looking forward to playing with Absolute Poker's online players," said The Grinder. "When I'm not playing in live events, I like to stay sharp by playing online -- it's a great way to stay on top of your game."


New Texas Holdem Launched


To celebrate the signing of Mizrachi and to introduce Absolute Player players to him in style, Absolute Poker also recently announced the launch of one of the biggest no limit Texas Holdem games on the internet, aptly named "The Grinder."
