Battle of the Pocket Pairs
There was mega action taking place over in Amazon Gold recently. Michael Holm had opened to 18,000 in the hijack and Marcos Rodriguez three-bet all in for 158,500 in the cutoff. Ian Pelz was on the button and flat called. The player in the small blind looked like he was tempted too, tanking for a couple of minutes before letting it go. When it came back to Holm, he began to tell a story of a time when a player was in the same spot as he was and made a big laydown, before folding pocket-kings face up.
Marcos Rodriguez: 
Ian Pelz: 
Holm got out of his seat at this point as the dealer laid 
down on the flop. The 
turn was another brick but the 
came on the river, keeping Rodriguez in the game. He couldn't help but celebrate in the heat of the moment and then apologized to the table for his excitement.
