While Tudor Bartha opened to 1,000,000 on the Button, short-stacked Stanislaw Grodek was enlightening Carlo Wolters that is nicknamed, “Steel Wheel.” Mid-anecdote, Bartha urged Grodek (in a very friendly way) to act; “Getting tired,” Bartha joked. Said and done, Grodek looked at his hole cards, then moved all in for 4,500,000. Wolters folded before Bartha made the call, wishing his opponent good luck.

Grodek extended his lead on the flop. Bartha picked up a flush draw on the turn, but the river ultimately sealed the deal for Grodek. “Anyway, as I was saying,” Grodek continued the Steel Wheel history lesson as he stacked his chips, and the players shared a laugh.
Tudor Bartha: 25,000,000
Stanislaw Grodek: 10,000,000
