Ho Makes a Run

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

After cashing out in 300th place in the Monster Stack earlier today, Duy Ho registered for this tournament on the dinner break.

He figured why not, since he'd made 6th place in a $1,000 event earlier this summer for $51,198. Sure enough, he's run it up from 4,500 to 75,000 in just a few levels.

Moments ago he raised with {8-}{2-} from the button and got called by the big blind. The flop came {7-}{5-}{2-} with two clubs and when the big blind shoved for almost 18,000, Ho figured he was bluffing.

He called and was wrong, the big blind had {6-}{7-} and looked good to double. That is until Ho hit an {8-} on the turn and sent him home hungry.
