Big O

Allan Le raised the cutoff to 15,000 and Paul Holder came along in the big blind.

On the 9♣6♠4♥ flop, Le continued for 16,000 which was met with a pot-sized raise from Holder to 87,000. Le then re-potted for 230,000 effective and Holder begrudgingly called off.

Allan Le: A♣K♠6♥6♣3♣

It was a cooler situation in which Le had flopped the higher set and better low draw. The board ran out 2♥10♣ and Le collected a massive pot as Holder was sent to the payout desk.
