Holmes Chips Up More

Level 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Arriving on a turn of 4J54, Rory Ryan bet 6,500 from the big blind into a pot of 31,000. John Holmes was his opponent, in middle position, and he shook his head a few times before putting in the call.

The 2 river then completed the board, and Ryan fired another bet, of 12,000 chips this time. Holmes tanked for another minute or so before tossing in a calling chip.

Ryan showed K5 for two pair, fives and fours, but Holmes had that beat with his 99 for a higher two pair. He scooped up another pot, ending up with a stack worth over three starting stacks.
