Kind River to Ho

Action folded around to Mark Allen on the button who raised to 5,000. The small blind got out of the way and Maria Ho announced that she was all in from the big blind. Allen made the call and the hands were turned over.

Ho: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Allen: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

After the flop Ho's chances looked pretty bleak, coming {5-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{9-Spades}. The {A-Diamonds} on the turn left her with only two eights as outs. Fortunately for Ho, the {8-Hearts} drilled the river and she was able to double up through Allen.
