Maturi Holds Against Flush Draw

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

With about 25,000 in the pot and the board reading {q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, Alex Maturi was in the small blind and heads up against Everett Carlton in the big blind. Both players got it in on the flop with Maturi covering Carlton's stack of 123,500 by 2,000.

Maturi tabled {2-}{2-} for a set of two's and Carlton showed {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a flush draw.

The board bricked off with the {4-Spades} and {9-Clubs}, sending the pot to Maturi and eliminating Carlton.
