Chip Leader Takes A Knock

James Hart
James Hart
With Jason Ho and James Hart seeing (and checking) a {4-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop, Ho bets out 1k on the {A-Clubs} turn only to throw Hart into the think tank.

After seemingly dwelling up a fold or call, James surprised everyone by shoving his entire stack across the line, making it precisely 4,775 more for the chip leader to call.

Either a total non-believer or eager to show that he's unwilling to be pushed around, Ho makes the call with {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} making him not just an underdog to James' {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}, but an underpuppy with just two outs.

Neither of those outs arrived, resulting in a double through for Hart. Ho, however, remains in a commanding position with circa 30 thousand in chips.
