Maria Ho

SHRP favorite Maria Ho arrived in town last night and sat down this afternoon for her first SHRPO tournament of the series. She’s warming up for the Big 4 events this weekend where she’ll be more than just playing poker.

On top of her time at the tables, Maria will be hosting our daily videos around the property and mc’ing our Big 4 final table action on August 13. Last summer she had to do a little more work to do; she was mc’ing at the same time that she was playing at a Big 4 final table of her own. Maria finished seventh in the $1,100 event then picked up the microphone and continued to work.

In more recent news, Maria is having a great 2019. She won the LAPC $25K High Roller in March, finished fourth in the partypoker MILLIONS North America High Roller, and final tabled the $5,000 WSOP tournament. In between all of that, she made our WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship final table.

Those WPT final six played it out in Las Vegas and she finished in third place for $334,960. All told, Maria has cashed for $911,563 so far in 2019 and we still have five months remaining in the year.

In addition to her success at the tables, Maria was inducted into the Women’s Poker Hall of Fame earlier this summer to cement her status in the poker world.
