Michael Holmes Eliminated in 2nd Place ($134,171)

Tyler Foran

Niveau 38 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Michael Holmes limp-called Joseph Altomonte's raise of 3,000,000 before the flop.

When the dealer spread the flop of A♣9♠4♠, Altomonte bet the pot of 7,000,000 and called it off when Holmes jammed for around 10,000,000.

"Do you have the ace?" Asked Holmes before both hands were tabled.

"No, but I have kings," Altomonte replied as he tabled his hand.

Michael Holmes: Q♠J♦J♠4♦
Joseph Altomonte: K♦K♠6♦2♦

Altomonte was ahead with his kings and the board completed with the 6♥ on the turn and the 9♥ on the river, sending Holmes home in 2nd place.
