Level 16

John Holley jammed for 18,000 from the cutoff and was called by Travis Pearson.
As the other tables finished up, a few players came to view the table.
"You got this [John]," said Yuval Bronshtein. "I'm here for moral support."
"I thought we were playing Badugi," laughed Holley as he tabled A♦7♣3♥2♠.
Pearson was ahead with A♣A♥Q♣10♥ and remained best after the A♠J♣4♦ flop. The 6♥ turn gave Holley a six-four low and he pulled back his chips after the 7♠ completed the board.
