Maria Ho opened the hijack to 2,200 and Nicholas Reese called on the button. In the big blind, Cole Ferraro three-bet to 10,000 and only Ho called.
On the K♠K♣10♣ flop, Ferraro continued for 5,000 and Ho put in the call.
Ho called another bet on the 8♦ turn, this time for 10,000.
The river brought the A♣. Ferraro slowed down with a check and Ho tanked for some time before she bet for 23,000 effective to put Ferraro at risk. Making a decision for his tournament life, Ferraro ultimately decided to lay it down, conceding a sizeable pot to Ho without showdown.
