Maher Turns Two Pair

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Prahlad Friedman opened from late position to 700. Jeremy Maher, in the hijack, and Denise Whitson, on the button both called, as did the big blind.

On the {4-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{q-Spades} flop, Maher fired for 1,200. Whitson called while Friedman and the big blind got out of the way.

On the {9-Hearts} turn, Maher continued, firing 3,400 into the middle, and getting another call from Whitson.

Maher sized up and bet 6,000 on the {3-Hearts} river, getting one last call from Whitson. Maher turned over {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, good for two pair. Whitson pushed her cards into the muck while Maher scooped the pot.
