Back-to-Back Premiums for Ho

Following an under-the-gun limp from Li Tsan Wa and calls from Graeme Siow (cutoff) and Shao Hong Lee (small blind), Choy Wing Ho squeezed to 5,600 from the big blind. Wa was the only caller.
As soon as the flop hit the felt, Ho declared himself all-in for 19,000 and while he looked interested, eventually Wa gave it up, with Ho obligingly flashing him
as he scooped the pot.
The very next hand, a player in the cutoff opened to 1,300 and Ho defended from the big blind, taking the action heads-up to a flop.
Ho checked the action over to the initial aggressor, who continuation bet 2,300, only to see Ho check-raise to 5,300 in total. It didn't take long for the initial raiser's hand to hit the muck, and Ho flashed the table for flopped top set to climb to 37,000 in chips.
