De Luca Bets Big on the River, Forces Fold from Holtzman
Stylianos Kollatos opened for 300 from the cutoff and Guy Holtzman, from the small blind, three-bet to 1,500. Sergio Gustavo De Luca cold-called from the big blind and Kollatos folded.
The flop came 
and Holtzman continued for 2,500. De Luca called right away.
The turn brought the 
, putting a four-card straight on the board in addition to the existing flush draw. Holtzman once again fired, this time for 5,000. De Luca quickly called once more.
On the 
river, Holtzman avoided a third barrel and checked his option. De Luca briefly thought before putting two blue chips out there, symbolizing 10,000 of his remaining 17,500 chips.
Holtzman put two blue chips to the side and repeatedly counted out the chips that would remain should he lose the hand, contemplating for just under a minute. Eventually, he opted against calling and tossed his cards into the muck.
De Luca would graciously accept the pot and return to just above starting stack.
