Ace on the River Helps Ho

Maria Ho opened from the cut off to 2,650 in the 600/1200-level with {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. Both Byron Kaverman {7-Spades}{8-Spades} and Scott Ball {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} called from the blinds.

The {5-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} flop was checked through. The {2-Clubs} on the turn gave Ball two pair. He bet 5,125 and Ho was the only caller. The river brought the {A-Clubs} which gave Ho a higher two pair.

Both players checked and Ho raked in the pot. The LA Sunset player won another pot from Ball shortly after and took the chiplead.
