John Holley Eliminated in 8th Place ($12,479)
Niveau 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 90,000 ante
Jason Mercier raised 125,000 from under the gun. John Holley moved all in from the big blind for 225,000 more.
Holley asked for one, and Mercier elected to pat. When the cards were turned over Holley was very much alive with a 7x6x3x2x to Mercier's 8x6x5x4x2x.
Holley received his card and then spun it on top of his hand, it was a jack, and he had busted. With nine WSOP Circuit rings, 126 WSOP cashes for $1,308,260, Holley hoped this tournament might be the one where he earned that elusive first bracelet. With a very deep run he made an admirable run at that goal.
