Level 13
Seven Card Stud Hi/Lo
Maria Ho has finally taken a hit to her stack after playing a hug pot with the other player at the table who had chips to play with, Robert Campbell.
The action was played out with Ho leading most of the way until Campbell threw in a check-raise on fourth street. More bets were exchanged on fifth and sixth street as the pot continued to build
With the pot already one of the biggest of the night, Campbell then checked seventh and Ho bet. Campbell made the call.
Ho announced she had three-aces, having 
in the hole.
Campbell then turned over his hole cards to reveal he had 
. Quad threes were good enough to take the chip lead and with no low qualifiers it was a scoop for Campbell. But it was after the hand that all the excitement occured with the sleepy table pepping up to talk about the hand for the next few minutes.
No one could understand the check-call with quads, all the players coming up with theories as to why it occured, while Ho was also licking her wounds as Campbell had caught the runner-runner to take down the pot.
After some time Campbell came out and admitted he thought he had a small full house and was worried that Ho had a bigger full house.
It really is getting late.
Campbell now has the chip-lead with 175,000 while Ho moves down to 125,000.

Eli Scoops Smith
Level 13
Omaha Hi-Lo
Justin Smith bet into fellow Full Tilt Red Pro Eli Elezra on a

turn, Smith checked, and Eli bet. Smith called. It went check, bet, call again after the 
river. Elezra tabled 
for a wheel to scoop.
Elezra was approaching the danger zone, but he's back up to 75,000. Smith is down to 50,000.
Ho's Stack Still Growing
Level 13
Omaha Hi-Lo
Maria Ho raised, and Mike Watson called to see the 
flop. Watson check-raised, and Ho called the extra bet. Watson bet the 
on the turn, and Ho tanked a bit before calling. The 
river meant there would be no low half. Watson checked, and Ho checked behind. She had 
for aces and kings with a queen. Watson's 
was no good, and Ho scooped the hand.
Ho is up to 195,000, while Watson sank to 37,000.

Omaha Boosts The Aggression
Level 12
Pot Limit Omaha
Justin Smith has shown some aggression as the game changed to Pot Limit Omaha, taking down the first hand of the PLO rotation without seeing a flop.
Faced with a pot sized raise from Mike Watson in front of him, Smith thought for some time before saying "pot". Nobody wanted to rumble and Smith took down the hand.
