Ho Chops It Up Again
Niveau 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Maria Ho raised 60,000 from under the gun and button Christopher Hodgson called. Big blind Cole Keenan looked at his stack and saw he had only 140,000. Then he turned and craned his head up to the game lock, watching at it for a long time. A tablemate asked what he was doing.
"I'm waiting for the payouts to scroll," said Keenan. "I need to see the pay jump."
After another moment, Keenan saw the information he was looking for and put those remaining chips all in. Ho called and Hodgson folded.
Ho: A♣Q♣
Keenan: A♥Q♦
The 4♠2♠5♣10♥A♠ board did not bring enough clubs for Ho, or diamonds or hearts for Keenan, and they split the pot. And Keenan perhaps lived to make that next pay jump.
