Lee Markholt Gets Paid Off

Action folded to the player in the cutoff seat who raised to 1,800. Lee Markholt moved all in from the button for 6,625 and the raiser made the call. The players showed:

Markholt: {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs}
Opponent: {Q-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}

Markholt made top pair when the board ran out {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {5-Clubs}. He is now working with a stack of about 17,000 chips.
