Ghassemi's Superior Play Ousts Holloway
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Level 14 Blinds 2k/4k/4k
After Chad Holloway limped from the small blind, Pedram Ghassemi opened to 12,000 and then Holloway limp-jammed for 73,000.
Although this move is usually associated with super strong ranges, Ghassemi made the call anyways to put Holloway at risk.
Chad Holloway: Q?Q?
Pedram Ghassemi: A?10?
Holloway was in great shape to double here, but the runout of 3?10?2?A?5? gave Ghassemi two-pair on the turn to defeat Holloway's queens and sent him to the rail in brutal fashion.
