Markholt Doubles Through Juanda

A few moments ago, a short-stacked Lee Markholt doubled through fellow pro John Juanda.

On a board showing {K-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}, Juanda checked to Markholt who fired a 400 bet. Juanda responded with a check-raise, making it a total of 2,000 to play -- the majority of Markholt's stack.

"I knew you thought I was bluffing," said Markholt, as he tossed the remainder of his stack into the middle. Juanda called the extra 500 or so and Markholt tabled two black sevens for a set. Juanda had straight and flush outs, but the river blanked kicking Markholt back up to over 5,000 in chips.
