Holley Down to Fumes After Doubling Smirnov
Stephen Deutsch raised to 130,000 and John Holley let it ride with a pot-sized three-bet from the big blind. Deutsch started casual table chat with the jovial Holley and opted to "live another day" with a fold. Holley exposed the 9♥ which he declared as the key card, then stated he had AxAx2x9x.
One hand later, Holley limped in but instantly asked "how much can he make it", fully expecting a raise by Hassan Kamel.
"You know what it is," Kamel replied and potted to 240,000 for Holley to call. The 8♥5♥2♣ flop was check-called by Holley when Kamel continued for 200,000. Both checked the 9♠ turn and the 2♦ river saw Holley check again. Kamel bet the full pot for 960,000 and forced a fold.
In the very next hand, Holley raised to 200,000 on the button and Anton Smirnov potted to 600,000 from the big blind. Without any hesitation, Holley called and they headed to the Q♠10♠5♣ flop. Smirnov pushed forward 250,000 and left 25,000 behind, which Holley didn't see.
Holley instantly splashed in chips and exposed his cards, then turned them back over when it was pointed out. Hence, Holley only called and Smirnov checked the 3♥ turn.
"Wait, let me check my cards," Holley stated and checked it back to the 10♦ river.
Smirnov moved all-in and Holley called. "You win, but I can't fold the wrap," Holley said as he exposed his A♥K♣J♠5♠. Smirnov earned the full double with the A♠Q♦7♠3♦ to leave Holley on fumes.
