Big Pot for Hollinger

Matt Holinger just took a huge pot off of John Hoffman in the Amazon Room.

Two players limped and action folded to Hoffman in the small blind who raised to more than 4,000 chips. Hollinger called in the small blind and so too did the limpers.

The flop fell {10-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and Hoffman led for 15,000. Hollinger shoved all in and the action folded back to Hoffman who elected to make the call tabling {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}. His aces were no match for Hoffman��s {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} however.

Hoffman stood from his chair as the {6-Clubs} came on the turn, nervous because he was the player at risk. With his hands on his head he breathed a sigh of relief and let out a yell when the {Q-Spades} was dealt on the river, giving him the winning hand.

Hoffman should be excited, his stack now towers over 90,000 chips. Hollinger is in deep trouble though, sitting with only 5,000 chips.
