Maria Ho Will Not Be Pushed Around

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Maria Ho opened to 400 from the hijack and David Tuthill popped it up to 1,100 one seat to her left. It was folded back to Ho who made the call.

The flop came {Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Ho tapped her pinkie on the table indicating a check. Tuthill threw out a T1,000 chip bet while stating a bet of 800 and then grabbed the yellow chip and put out the exact amount. Ho wasted little time in making the call.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and Ho tapped her pinkie again and after a few seconds of thought Tuthill checked behind.

The river was the {7-Spades} and Ho once again pinkie checked. Tuthill verbally announced a bet of 1,400 and placed the chips into the middle. Ho made the call and Tuthill turned over {9-}{8-Spades} for a missed gutterball straight draw. Ho tabled {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} and was rewarded the pot for her excellent call.
