Ho Couldn't Bet Him Out

On a flop of {4-Spades}{K-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, Maria Ho's opponent dropped a bet of 775 into the middle. Ho called and they saw the turn come {9-Diamonds}. Her opponent checked and Ho tossed out 1,250. Her opponent made the call and the final card came in the form of the {7-Hearts}. Once again Ho's opponent checked and once again she pushed out a bet. This time the magic number was 2,700.

After some deliberation, Ho's opponent made the call and she shot her cards quickly toward the muck. Her opponent tabled {9-Spades}{6-Spades} and was able to win the pot with a pair of nines.
