Grodek’s Nut Flush Leaves Mack in the Muck
Stanislaw Grodek opened from under the gun and Adrian Mack three-bet the button to 35,000.
"You cover me, right?" asked Grodek when the action got back to him. Indeed, Mack did have the bigger stack, and Grodek called.
They saw a flop of 8♠Q♠6♠ where Grodek checked and Mack fired out 30,000. Grodek then went with a check-raise and made it 75,000, then Mack called.
A 3♦ dropped on the turn and Grodek reached for the bigger denomination chips, and fired out a bet of 100,000. Mack wasted no time in calling.
When the J♥ completed the board on the river, Grodek put three of his timebanks into the pot and burned through one of them before he shoved for 393,000. Mack, who was chip leader after the restart, had a big decision on his hands and would have a monumental stack if he called with the best hand. After just ten seconds, he made the call.
Grodek then revealed the nuts with A♠9♠, and Mack's Q♣J♣ was turned over for the table to see.
A massive pot for Grodek as he secured a huge double-up!
