Flutur Hits the Turn For a Double
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Carl Shaw raised to 115,000 in the cutoff and was called by Felipe Morell on the button and Mircea Flutur in the big blind.
The flop came K♦10♣7♣ and action checked to Shaw who bet 200,000. Morelli folded, but Flutur then moved all in for 450,000. Shaw snap-called.
Mircea Flutur: J♣6♣
Carl Shaw: 10♠7♦
Shaw had two pair, while Flutur was chasing a flush draw. The turn came the A♣ and Flutur completed his flush to take the lead. Shaw needed to fill up on the river to score the knockout but instead saw the 8♠ fall as Flutur, the last remaining online qualifier in the field, doubled up.
