Ho Strikes Back, Hurts Engel With Aces
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Maria Ho fold to Ari Engel's river raise during the last level, and Ho just got her sweet revenge.
They swapped roles this time, with Engel betting 4,000 into a pot of about 5,000 chips on the river of the board.
Ho was in the cutoff, and she raised to 13,000.
"Fours," Engel whispered among other thoughts he had when guessing Ho's hand. She remained silent.
Dani Stern eventually called the clock on Engel, and the floorperson gave him 30 seconds. Engel needed about a third of that, throwing in the calling chips.
Ho turned up for aces full, raking in the sizable pot.
