Drew Scott Eliminated in 5th Place ($127,000)
Level 40
: Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Action folded to Maria Ho in the small blind who opted to limp. Drew Scott peeled back his cards before deciding to put in a raise to 7,500,000. Ho checked her cards once more before announcing all in and seeing a snap-call from Scott to set up a huge heads up runout.
Drew Scott: A♠Q♥
Maria Ho: K♥J♥
The flop came 5♣9♥5♠, keeping Scott well ahead of Ho.
The 2♥ turn card provided a lot of additional outs for Ho and when the river brought the K♦, Ho secured a massive knock out by sending Scott to the rail in fifth place for $127,000.
