His biggest online cash was a 5th-place finish in PokerStars' Sunday Million for $54,390, bringing his total online winnings to $285,614 across a wide range of internet poker sites.
Holden learned how to play as a student at Kent University, playing home games and at a poker society before moving into internet poker and doing so well that became a full-time player after graduating with a degree in foresnic science in 2010.
He's the low stack at the table, but is guaranteed at least $782,155 even if he is the first man elininated in November.
