Alex Maturi Eliminated in 20th Place ($15,024)

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Alex Maturi - 20th place
Alex Maturi - 20th place

Allan Vrooman opened to 39,000 only to have Alex Maturi three-bet all in for 277,000. Vrooman went into the tank for close to two minutes before making the call to put Maturi at risk.

Maturi: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Vrooman: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

With Maturi racing to stay alive, the {3-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop would render him drawing virtually dead to a running queen and jack, and when the {9-Spades} and {9-Clubs} landed on the turn and river, Maturi was out the door in 20th place for a $15,024 payday.
