Ho Misses Her Straight
Level 12
: Limits 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Anson Tsang raised on the button and was called by Maria Ho in the small blind, and Matt Woodword in the big blind.
The flop came 3?J?K?. When it checked to Tsang he bet, and was then raised by Ho. Woodward called, then Tsang put in the three-bet. Both Ho and Woodward called to see a turn.
On the turn was the 6? and both Ho and Woodward check-called the bet from Tsang.
The river brought the 5? and all three players checked.
Ho showed first and tabled Qx10x for a busted straight draw, and Tsang showed A?5? for a rivered pair of fives. Woodward mucked his hand and was left with only 8,000 chips. Woodward was eliminated from the tournament a few hands later.
