Watson Doubles through Holt

[user75032]

Karga Holt found himself in a bind. He had opened with a raise to 38,000 and was facing an all-in reraise to 150,000 total from Wes Watson.

"I don't know what to do," said Holt. "I don't have anything, but I don't think I can fold." Holt finally decided that no, he definitely couldn't fold, and called with {k-Spades}

{k-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

. Watson showed {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

, meaning Holt's cards were live.

"Thank you," said Holt. "That's exactly what I wanted to see." While that may have been the case, Holt didn't find any help on a board of {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{9-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

{j-Clubs}

and was forced to pay Watson off.
