Ho Hits The Rail

The flop read {6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and Paul Knebel fired out a bet of 5,600. Maria Ho flat called to see the {8-Spades} hit the turn. Knebel announced that he was all in which was a bet for Ho's tournament life. After tanking, she called and showed {10-}{10-}.

Unfortunately for Ho she was shown {J-}{j-} by Knebel. She failed to improve on the river and was forced to see an exit late in the day.

Calvin Calls Down Maria

Picking up the action the turn of a {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts}{9-Spades} board, Maria Ho bet 6,500, chasing away one opponent. Calvin Anderson, though, called to see the {J-Clubs} river where Ho bet 12,500.

Anderson spent about 90 seconds in the tank before he called. Ho acknowledged that his call was good and mucked once Anderson tabled {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

And More Chip Counts

Good For Grafton

We caught up to the action to find Sam Grafton and a lone opponent looking down at {5-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Grafton's opponent tossed out 5,000 only to have Grafton come over the top for 12,500. His opponent tanked for about a minute before finally sliding his cards into the muck. With his pick up Grafton has about 65,000.
