After slowly evening out the stacks, David Peters just scored the first significant blow of the heads-up battle.

Scott Wright raised to 38,000 from the button, and Peters defended his big blind.

The flop came down Js3s2s, and Peters check-called 55,000 from Wright. The 9c turn was checked by both players, the 5c river completed the board, Peters bet 115,000, and Wright called.

Peters showed Jc4c for a pair of jacks, Wright turned up a defeated 8h8s, and Peters collected the pot.

David Peters – 682,000 (43 bb)
Scott Wright – 233,000 (15 bb)
