Easy Game for Holm
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
On a heads-up completed board of 2♦7♠Q♣7♦9♣, a player bet 6,100 into a pot of 32,000 and then Mike Holm moved all in to cover.
The original raiser went deep into the tank, clearly distraught with such a decision this early in the tournament.
"Man, I think you flopped a set, but I don't know if I can fold aces here," he admitted and flashed A♣A♠. The dealer informed him that he would incur a penalty for exposing his cards unless he killed his hand.
"Screw it, I'll take the penalty, I call!" he announced as he flipped over his aces, but then Holm showed 7♣7♥ for quads to scoop the huge pot while his opponent was sent away fuming.
