Holloway Shows Down Aces on a Scary Board

Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Chad Holloway three-bet to 1,600 before the flop and David Welch called.
The flop came A?J?8? and Holloway continued for 1,000. Welch called, then called another bet of 2,000 on the 10? turn.
The river was the 9? and both players checked. Holloway showed A?A? for top set and Welch mucked.
