Grodek’s All-In Pays Off as Ivanov Folds
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
With the pot sitting at around 15,600 and the board reading 8♠5♦Q♣2♣6♣, only two players remained in the hand: Lyudmil Ivanov in the under-the-gun position and Stanislaw Grodek in early position. Ivanov checked, keeping his options open, but Grodek wasn’t ready to slow down. With only 8,800 left in his stack, Grodek made the bold move and shoved all in, putting his tournament life on the line.
Ivanov was faced with a tough decision and went deep into the tank, weighing the possibility of giving up a decent-sized pot. The pressure was palpable as he considered his next move, with minutes ticking by. Ultimately, Ivanov decided to fold, allowing Grodek to continue his journey in the tournament.
