Ho Counterfeited; Wins Anyway

Level 2

Maria Ho limped from late position, and the small blind raised. Vanessa Selbst called from the big blind, and Ho also called. The flop was {3-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}, and the small blind led out. Selbst folded, but Ho raised. After the blind called, the dealer turned the {3-Clubs}. Ho bet and was called, and she bet again on the {3-Diamonds} river card and was called again. Ho turned over {a-Spades}{8-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. She had flopped top two pair, but the turn and river killed both her pairs. She ended up with trip threes with A-K kicker. It was enough, however, as her opponent mucked his cards and Ho took the pot. She is now up to 18,500.
