Top Pair Ho-lds Up
Level 7
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Maria Ho had raised under-the-gun to 2,200 and Darren Elias called from the button, the big blind came along too.
On a 
flop, the big blind checked and so did Ho. That gave space for Elias to fire 2,100 into the pot which folded out the big blind.
After Ho called the bet, the 
fell on the turn. Ho decided to now lead out for 6,500 and Elias called.
The 
river completed the board and both players slowed down checking their options.
Ho showed 
which was good against Elias' holding.
