Ho's Deuces Crack Aces
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Maria Ho opened to 2,000 from middle position and called when the cutoff three-bet to 7,500.
On the J?10?5? flop, Ho check-called her opponent's all-in of around 12,000.
Cutoff: A?A?6?6? 
Maria Ho: A?5?2?2?
The cutoff was way ahead until the 2? turn improved Ho to a set of deuces. The J? river ensured that there would be no low. Ho improved to a full house and banked the knockout.
