Maria Ho Wins Some, Loses More

Maria Ho has been very active at her table.

In the first of two hands we just caught, she raised to 150 from the cutoff. She was called only by the big blind and the two saw a flop of {6-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. Both players checked to the turn.

The turn came {q-Hearts} and Ho led out with a bet of 150, getting a call from her opponent. When the big blind bet 650 after the {7-Spades} came on the river, Ho looked perplexed and thought for a while before making the call. She mucked when she saw her opponent's {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}.

On the very next hand she won a few of those chips back, raising to 150 from the hijack, getting a call from the big blind. She fired 200 into a flop of {5-Clubs}{j-Spades}{8-Diamonds}, which was good enough to take it down.
