Holley Gets Some Back
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 800 ante
A player opened to 1,400 from middle position before John Holley three-bet to 2,500 from the cutoff. He was called by Michael Lang in the small blind as well as the original raiser to send action three-way to the draw.
Lang took one and the middle position two while Holley stood pat after which action checked around. "Dammit" Lang exclaimed, frustrated at not being able to extract more value with what he believed was a winning hand. When he tabled his holding, however, it turned out he had 7x6x5x4x3x for a straight that he had not picked up on. Holley, meanwhile, showed down 10x9x7x6x3x to scoop the pot and recover some of the chips he lost in a massive pot with Chance Kornuth a little while ago.
