Max Value for Thomas
Horace Thomas opened to 700 from the cutoff but was then three-bet by Dustin Holladay on the button to 2,000. Yuval Bronshtein called from the small blind and Thomas also called.
The flop came out 
and action checked to Holladay, who continued for 3,400 and was called by both opponents.
But on the turn 
, Thomas led out for 6,500 after a check from Bronshtein, which was also called by both adversaries.
"Ok I call, maybe I'll get lucky again," Bronshtein said as he threw in his chips.
On the river 
, Bronshtein checked once more, and Thomas fired again for 10,000, which sent Holladay deep into the tank.
After a few minutes of pained deliberation, Holladay finally made the call, followed by a quick fold from Bronshtein. Thomas then flipped over 
for a turned straight and Holladay shook his head as he threw his cards into the muck.
