Ho Spikes River to Double Through Dodd
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Maria Ho open-jammed a stack of around 350,000 from middle position and Matt Dodd called in the big blind with a bigger stack.
Maria Ho: A?9?
Matt Dodd: K?J?
The flop of 8?9?K? gave Dodd the lead with a pair of kings, and the 5? turn didn't change anything. Ho needed an ace or nine on the river and she got it with the 9? as the poker commentator and Game of Gold champion doubled up.
