Level 9
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Mike Holmstrom raised to 3,200 from early position and Justin Brocato three-bet shoved for 12,000 from middle position. Action folded over to the big blind, who re-shoved for 14,2000. Back on Holmstrom, he though for a moment before deciding to call. Cards on their backs.
Brocato: 
Big Blind: 
Holmstrom: 
The 
flop hit everyone, but the player in the big blind had a stranglehold on the pot with his top set. However, the 
on the turn gave Holmstrom quads and left the other two players drawing dead. The meaningless 
completed the board, giving Holmstrom the double knockout.
