Four players built a pot of nearly 20,000 as they went to the 9♦10♦2♦ flop. All four players checked to the 3♠ turn, where Karim Phillips bet from the big blind. Juha Helppi folded in the hijack, while Michael Casella called in the cutoff and Chad Eveslage came along from the small blind.
The 4♦ river was checked down, and Eveslage showed 5♦5♠ for a flush. Casella, though, had 7♦7♠ for a higher flush, and Phillips flashed 9♥9♣ for a beaten set as the big pot was pushed over to Casella.
