Vitaly Lunkin opened for 2,200 from late position and got one call from Maria Ho in the big blind.

The flop was {8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. A check from Ho saw a continuation bet of 2,500 from Lunkin. Ho responded with a check-raise to 7,000. There was a slight pause before Lunkin called the bet.

The turn card was the {2-Clubs} and Ho led out for 15,000.

Lunkin started puzzling it out. Ho had a big stack of chips behind her. Lunkin, on the other hand, had only 38,000 left.

Eventually Lunkin folded his hand and Ho showed respect to her opponent by revealing her {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for a flopped set.
