Great Turn of Events

Maria Ho
Maria Ho

Maria Ho raised in middle position and a player in the cutoff put in a third bet preflop. Both Ho and a player in the small blind called and the three took a flop of {K-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}.

The player in the small blind bet, Ho raised and and the player in the cutoff called all in. The player in the small blind called as well.

The turn brought the {7-Hearts} and Ho's opponent led again. Ho raised and her opponent called.

Ho's opponent slowed down when the {A-Spades} rivered, check-calling her bet. All three hands were opened:

Showdown
Ho: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Cutoff (All in): {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Small Blind: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

Ho took the pot down with an ace-high flush chipping up to 38,000 chips and eliminating her opponent in the cutoff.
