Ho Gets There Both Ways to Bust Rakuss
Nível 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Maria Ho raised to 18,000 on the button as action folded to a short-stacked Eduards Rakuss in the big blind. "At 9:30 I make my decision," Rakuss said with more than 10 minutes remaining in the level. He waited until the clock clicked down before calling.
The flop came 9♣6♦8♥ and Ho bet all in. Rakuss again paused for a moment before calling off his last 10,000.
Eduards Rakuss: 5♥5♠ 
Maria Ho: Q♣7♣
Ho had a straight draw against Rakuss' pair, and while Rakuss improved to a set on the 5♣ turn, the same card gave Ho her straight. The K♣ river improved Ho to a flush and sent Rakuss to the rail.
