A Hohn-ey of a Hand

Over at the eight-handed Table 364, Thomas Koral opened for 3,300 from the hijack seat, then Paul Magriel made a big reraise to 44,000 from the cutoff. Steve Hohn then called the reraise with the rest of his stack -- about 20,000 -- from the button. The blinds and Koral got out, and the players tabled their cards.

Magriel showed {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, while Hohn had {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}. The flop came {J-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, then the {8-Clubs} came on the turn. "Six!" said Magriel, hoping to backdoor a straight. But the river was the {Q-Diamonds}, giving Hohn the hand.

Hohn is up to 53,000 and Magriel now down to 24,000. Sean Grover leads the table at present with 110,000.
