…and you’ll see the stacks of Tim Hartmann and Patryk Pietnoczko looking about the same. Hartmann has fought back to the chip leader spot, just now winning a two million chip pot. Pietnoczko isn’t pulling any punches with bet size, firing 500k on a 3d-8d-9h flop (the preflop action wasn’t huge). Hartmann check-called this bet, then checked again when the Qd appeared on the turn. Out came Pietnoczko with another 500k bet, but this time Hartmann raised him all in. He decided against it, saying, “Nice hand.”
Hartmann: 6 million
Pietnoczko: 1.6 million
