Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Players were heads-up and already on the turn looking at a 4♥9♠5♠10♥ board. The pot stood at around 200,000 and Linda Durden bet 100,000 from the big blind. Ting Ho moved all in from a late position and Durden made the call.
Linda Durden: K♥10♦
Ting Ho: Q♣J♥
Durden was ahead with a pair of tens and Ho was looking to hit the open-ended straight draw on the river.
The dealer placed the 9♥, giving Durden two pair and that secured her the double.
