Rivered Boat = Lots Mo' Fo' Ho

Maria Ho opened for 700 from middle position and action folded around to the big blind, who made the call.

The flop came {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Ho's opponent checked - prompting a 750 c-bet from Ho. Her opponent responded by check-raising to 1,850. Ho thought it over and made the call.

The turn brought the {2-Hearts} and Ho's opponent continued his aggression and fired 3,025 into the middle. Undeterred, Ho again called.

The {10-Hearts} completed the board and the player in the big fired one last time for 8,000. Ho paused, and then raised to 19,400 total. Her opponent immediately announced, "Call," and Ho tabled {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for a rivered tens-full of deuces. Her opponent revealed that he had the {5-Spades}{5-Clubs} for an inferior full house and mucked.

Ho has been on quite a roll this past level - she is up to 90,000.
