Chad Holloway was all in and at risk preflop for about his last 25,000.

Chad Holloway: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

"Do you need help," asked Alex Outhred from a neighboring table.

"No, I'm ahead," said Holloway.

The flop came down {10-Clubs}{k-Spades}{9-Spades} to leave Holloway drawing thin.

"Now I need a five," Holloway said to Outhred.

And just like that the {5-Hearts} banged on the turn to give Holloway a set. The river was a blank and Holloway doubled.

On a heads- up flop of {6-Clubs}{10-Spades}{q-Diamonds}, Roger Aielli in middle position bet 65,000 into an already bloated pot. His opponent in late position went into the tank for a few moments.

The turn {3-Hearts} left his opponent drawing dead and the {j-Hearts} river sealed Aielli's victory and he was awarded the pot for a big double up.
