Holley Finds a Big Fold

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

John Holley had a wager of 44,000 in front of him in middle position. A couple of seats over, Johann Ibanez was all in from the hijack for 327,000.

"I wish I had been at this table a little bit longer," Holley said with a sigh. "I'd know exactly what to do."

After another minute or so, he mucked {q-Spades}{q-Clubs} face up. Ibanez said he could pick a card and Holley turned up the {k-Clubs}.

"Kings, 100 percent," Kevin Saul said. "If he lets you pick one, it's always kings."

Holley seemed less confident, seeming to think he may have folded the slight favorite against ace-king.

"I don't fold queens too often," he declared.
