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