Watson Doubles through Holt

Karga Holt found himself in a bind. He had opened with a raise to 38,000 and was facing an all-in reraise to 150,000 total from Wes Watson.

"I don't know what to do," said Holt. "I don't have anything, but I don't think I can fold." Holt finally decided that no, he definitely couldn't fold, and called with {k-Spades} {10-Diamonds}. Watson showed {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs}, meaning Holt's cards were live.

"Thank you," said Holt. "That's exactly what I wanted to see." While that may have been the case, Holt didn't find any help on a board of {3-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {4-Spades} {3-Clubs} {j-Clubs} and was forced to pay Watson off.
