Alioto on the Ascent

Dario Alioto just took a 2-7 Triple Draw hand from Maria Ho. They both took a card on the second draw, and Ho called Alioto's bet. On the last draw, Ho took one and Alioto stood pat. Ho picked up a queen on the end, showing {Q-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-}, meaning Alioto's 9-low was good enough.

Alioto has a healthy stack of over 25,000, while Ho is down to just 2,800.
