: 400/800, 75 ante
William Ho is the new chip leader after taking down a massive pot against Sam DeSabio.
The player in Seat 1 opened to 1,700 from early position and Ryan Rivers (cutoff), DeSabio (button and Ho (big blind) called.
The dealer fanned the 
flop and action checked to DeSabio, who bet 3,400. Ho called, and the player in Seat 1 check-raised to 10,000. Rivers mucked and DeSabio responded with a three-bet to 33,400. Ho quickly announced all in and the other player got out of the way. DeSabio pondered his options for a minute before committing his stack.
Ho: 
DeSabio: 
Ho turned the big blind special into gold with his flopped straight and he managed to hod up through the 
turn and 
river. DeSabio was eliminated.
