Barshak Bluffs Out Holley

John Holley opened to 325 in the hijack and Corey "comandr_cool" Burbick popped it to 1,200 from the cutoff. Steve "Illini213" Barshak four-bet to 3,175 in the small blind, finding calls from both Holley and Burbick.

The flop came down {8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Barshak bet 4,600. Holley tagged along, Burbick ducked out of the way, and the {K-Diamonds} followed on the turn. Barshak fired again, this time 9,500. Holley sat back in his chair and sighed, "I told myself I wouldn't go broke with queens," and then proceeded to fold his {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} face up.

Barshak showed a {7-Spades} as he collected the chips.
