Ho in Profit Despite Loss

Dutch professional Patrick Renkers just raised under the gun, and the action was folded to Maria Ho. Ho opted to three-bet to 3.300, and Renkers moved all in for 14.800. Ho snap-called, and both players turned over their cards.

Ho showed {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}, and was looking for some help against Renkers' {9-Spades}{9-Spades}. The board ran out {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades}, and Renkers doubled up.

Despite this small loss Ho is still in profit today, as she has one of the biggest stacks in the room.
