Hand #168: Jack Oliver jammed for 35,700,000 in the small blind and Holmes in the big blind asked for a count. After one minute and 11 seconds of consideration, Holmes made the call.
Jack Oliver:
George Holmes:
The flop kept Oliver in the lead with a pair of eights but the
turn improved Holmes to the superior pair.
Nothing changed on the river and that spelled the end for Oliver in third place. He takes home $3 million for the efforts and there will now be a short break before heads-up play gets underway.
