Holloway Plays Hero

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Hieu Le opened to 3,000 under the gun, a middle-position player called, and Chad Holloway came along for a discount in the big blind. All three players checked through to fifth street, when the board read {4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Holloway checked a final time, Le bet 6,500, and the middle-position player folded.

Holloway shifted his sunglasses to the top of his head and placed his fingers to his temples, seemingly deep in thought. After about two minutes, he announced a call. Le mucked his cards, and Holloway's {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} was good.
