Maria Ho Eliminated in 6th Place ($26,858)
Level 21
: 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Maria Ho came into the final table as our chip leader, but nothing went her way when she came to the secondary feature table, as she lost every pot that she entered. In the final hand, Ho tried to commit all her chips preflop, but she had to leave 4,000 behind because of the betting limits. Marco Johnson and Juha Helppi called from the blind, and the flop came . It was checked to Ho, who bet her final 4,000, and the two players called. They then checked the on the turn, and the on the river.
Johnson announced "queen high", and Helppi showed for a pair. Ho let out a big sigh, and mucked her cards, though they had to be tabled: for king high. Ho exited the area in 6th place, while Helppi jumped up to 390,000.
