Ho's Turn Lead Takes Down the Pot
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
On a flop of 5♥4♥5♦, Maria Ho had checked out of the big blind and Igor Tregoubov bet 1,200. A player in the cutoff folded before Ho put in the call.
The turn came the 8♣. Ho thought briefly before leading out for roughly 3,500. Tregoubov was visibly annoyed by this turn and Ho's bet. Ultimately he settled on a fold.
Ho assured Tregoubov that she "had it" as she slid her cards face down to the dealer.
