Ho Holds

We don't know exactly how the action went preflop, but what we do know is Maria Ho had her shorter stacked opponent all in and at risk. Luckily for Ho her {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} was ahead against her opponent's {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, but anything can happen.

A {5-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop was laid out and Ho furthered her advantage, she could even secure the win with any heart falling on the turn or the river. A {A-Spades} on the turn and a {8-Clubs} on the river insured the win for Ho, and she was shipped a sizable pot. Now crossing the 100,000 mark Ho is a threat to be reckoned with in today's field.
