CBS’s ‘Amazing Race’ says goodbye to professional poker players Maria Ho and Tiffany Michelle. Tiffany and Maria put up a fight but it came to an end on Sunday when they were eliminated by the host, Phil Keoghan. The poker duo had a difficult time completing the challenges as the challenges had to deal with strength. Ho and Michelle were actually in 2nd place when this challenge started and they were eliminated with 5 teams remaining in the race. Strength may not be there strong point (little pun intended) but at least they both have poker to come home to.
