Level 6
: 300/600, 100 ante
With 2,725 in the middle and the flop reading 
, Chad Holloway checked from out of the big blind over to Anna Khait who fired out a continuation-bet of 1,100.
Holloway responded with a check-raise to 3,100 only to have Khait announce she was all in. Holloway committed his final 9,775 and the cards were placed on their backs.
Holloway: 
Khait: 
With Holloway needing to avoid an eight or queen, the 
on the turn would see him needing to fade an additional three outs.
Fortunately for the 2013 WSOP Casino Employees Champion, the river landed the 
to ensure Holloway the double to over 22,000 as Khait drops to roughly 14,000 in chips.
