Malherbe Doubles Through Holden

Chad Holloway

Sam Holden opened for 120,000 and then called an all-in shove from Jean Malherbe to 1.485 million total.

Showdown

Malherbe{A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Holden{K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

Holden didn't look thrilled, and rightfully so as he was way behind. The board ran out a lackluster {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{A-Spades} and Malherbe doubled through last year's November Niner.
