Holtz's Rollercoaster Continues
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Pavel Plesuv opened from early position before calling a three-bet to 240,000 from Mike Holtz in the big blind.
Holtz continued for 125,000 on the 9♠3♦7♦ flop and received a call.
The J♦ turn saw Holtz jam all in, sending Plesuv into the tank. After mulling over his decision for a few moments, Plesuv made the call with the effective stack to put himself at risk.
Pavel Plesuv: Q♦Q♠ 
Mike Holtz: A♦6♠
Holtz had been caught bluffing with the ace of diamonds and could not improve on the 9♣ river, leaving his stack decimated.
