Holland Doubles Through Horvath, Leaves Him Short
Level 31
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Maxx Holland shoved all in for 1.2 million from the cutoff and action folded around to Scott Horvath in the big blind. Horvath asked for a count and thought for a bit before making the call.
Maxx Holland: 
Scott Horvath: 
Horvath had found himself ahead after making the call while Holland needed to improve to stay alive in the tournament.
The flop came 
to give Horvath a pair of tens and Holland a pair of eights with an open-ended straight draw. The turn fell 
and Holland was down to his last chance at a double.
The river then fell 
to complete a straight for Holland and secure the double, leaving Horvath back in familiar territory as the short stack.
