Two Pair For Ho

We found four players going to the flop, one of whom was all in. The flop came down {8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{9-Spades} and one player and Maria Ho checked to the button who bet. The first player called and Ho raised. The button replied by three-betting and the third wheel in the hand got out of the way.

Ho four-bet and the button called. The turn was the {6-Clubs} and Ho bet out again. She was called and the {J-Diamonds} rivered. Lather, rinse, repeat and Ho tabled {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a flopped two pair. Her opponent mucked but the all in player showed {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Ho tapped the table with a smile on her face, scooping the side pot that was larger than the main pot. She now sitting on about 11,000.
