Chad Holloway Called Down by Fellow Cheesehead Eddie Blumenthal
We caught our PokerNews colleague, and recent bracelet winner Chad Holloway involved in a confrontation with his friend and fellow Wisconsin native Eddie Blumenthal.
The board read 
by the river with nearly 7,000 in the pot already, and Holloway had two orange T5000 tournament chips in front of his cards, having check-raised Blumenthal's bet of 3,100.
Blumenthal tanked for a solid minute, while Holloway did his best impression of a statue, but eventually Blumenthal tossed out his own pair of orange chips for the call.
Holloway's sigh told the story, and Blumenthal rolled over 
for top pair on the turn. After flopping the nut flush draw, Blumenthal had found a red card that worked just as well as a diamond, and with this win he is off to a great start here at the Main Event.
