Holland Picks Up Aces to KO Valden

Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
The action was picked up on a heads-up turn of 8♠2♦J♦6♠ with a little over 1,000,000 in the middle and Maxx Holland had just moved all in for 1,800,000.
The action was then on David Valden who was in the tank.
After nearly two minutes, he shrugged and made the call, putting himself at risk.
David Valden: K♥J♥
Maxx Holland: A♦A♠
"Aghhh, nice hand," Valden sighed as he realized he was in rough shape. Only a jack or a king could keep him alive, but the river was the 8♥ to send him to the rail while Holland rakes in the big pot for a double.
