Syversen Takes From Ho, Busts Shortly After
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Action folded around to Thomas Syversen on the button who opened for 1,000. Shiina Okamoto called in the small blind and Maria Ho defended the big blind.
Both blinds checked the monotone flop of 9♦K♦8♦ to Syversen who bet 1,000. Okamoto folded and Ho called. She then checked the 4♥ turn, prompting Syversen to continue for 3,000. After a moment's thought, Ho slid her cards into the muck.
Syversen had half a starting stack after the pot, but he could not spin it up and busted shortly afterwards.
