Ho Gets Lucky to Double Up

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

It looks like Mario Ho didn't use up all of her luck with her deep run in the 5k no-limit yesterday. She has just doubled up after getting her stack in preflop in the small blind with {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}. She was behind big time against her opponent in the big blind with {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}, but the board ran out {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, giving her a flopped set and a double up to 4,125.
