Holley Out, For Now

Level 6

Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better

Roland Israelashvili: XxXx/A3K2/Xx
John Holley: XxXx/57810/Xx

Action was joined on fourth street. Holley bet, with Israelashvili check-calling. Fifth through seventh streets followed the same pattern. Holley showed A75 for two pair, but Israelasvili turned over AK9 for a higher two pair.

On the next hand, Holley was all in against Israelashvili once more, with one more card to come.

John Holley: J7/4886/Xx
Roland Israelashvili: 63/52Q5/Xx

Israelashvili went first, turning over a 4 to give him a six-high straight and a six-five low. Holley found no help with his final 9, and he left the table - although he mentioned that he may buy in again before tomorrow's play begins.
