: 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
After Jared Jaffee opened to 195,000 he watched Robert Merulla defend his small blind with a call, and Kunal Patel do the same from the big blind.
The flop rolled out 
and the three checked around, bringing the 
to the table on the turn. Merulla led out for 225,000 on fourth street and only Patel came along, bringing the 
on board with the river.
Merulla checked the action on fifth street, inviting Patel to make a big bet of 605,000 and force the fold.
