Maria Ho got her first win of the day, defeating Marc Andre Ladouceur in game #3 of the Americas Conference Final. The momentum shifted her way when she turned two pair against Ladouceur. Ladouceur fired three times and Ho called on the river to win a huge pot and take the lead. Just before she finished the match, she made a big river bet to put Ladouceur at risk. He folded the best hand and would be eliminated shortly after. You can watch the clip below.

She started to feel the time crunch and ended up in the Hot Seat for the second time today. When a player gets in the Hot Seat they only have four seconds to make their decisions before their hand is folded. She managed to win the match, playing only two hands in the hot seat. She shoved with king-high against Ladouceur's short stack and he called with ace-high.
