After the player in the cutoff seat opened with a raise to 650, Mike Ziemba reraised to 1,800 on the button. Then, the player in the big blind reraised to 8,700. After the original raiser folded, Ziemba did a little bit of thinking. Then, he announced that he was all in.

"What took you so long?" said the player in the big blind. "I call."

Ziemba rolled over the {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}, and his opponent had the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

The flop came down {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and left the all-in player — who was at risk for around 20,000 total — drawing to just one out as the queen of diamonds would give Ziemba a flush. The turn was the {2-Clubs}, and then the {6-Spades} completed the board on the river. With that, Ziemba busted the player and moved to approximately 69,000 in chips.

Ziemba, who is a former SuperNova Elite on PokerStars that had his livelihood stripped from him due to Black Friday, now spends most of his time grinding online from his home in Las Vegas. In January, PokerNews' Rich Ryan spent some time with Ziemba to discuss how the online grinder had his life affected by that terrible day in April a few years ago that rocked the poker industry and how he has worked to get things back in order.

Since online poker has become legal again in Nevada, Ziemba has begun his climb back up poker's obstacle-laden mountain, regarded as one of the top players in the newly-regulated virtual realm. While cash games are his primary focus, he's here in the 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event taking a shot that has the potential to truly change his life.
