Minieri Loses Another 25,000 to Holm
Minieri made it 3,600 from the button, only for Uffe Holm to make it around 10,000 from the small blind. After a little consideration, Minieri made it around 25,000. Holm called, and they saw a flop.

Turn:
Holm considered for a moment, pulling his hood up so as to think better. Then he bet 15,000.
"You know what I have," sighed Minieri, and folded. "I think you have, er, six-eight," quipped Holm. "You're wrong," deadpanned Minieri.
Minieri drops down to a still very chunky 80,000, while Holm catapults up to 113,000.

Minieri Down a Million?
Said Holm: "You have a million dollars?"
Minieri: "Yes."
Holm: "You pay a million dollars?"
Minieri: "Ummm... Yes."
Holm: "I'll bet a thousand dollars."
Minieri: "No. I only bet a million."
They shook on it, and Holm turned over pocket eights.
"You want the name of my bank in Denmark, or you pay cash?"
