Mercurio Speeding Up

Sanghyon Cheong calls from under the gun and Matthew Mercurio moves all in for 62,200. It's folded back to Cheong who makes the call.

Showdown:
Cheong: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Mercurio: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The flop comes {k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}, bringing no help for Mercurio. The turn is the {10-Spades}, giving Mercurio a few more outs. The {10-Clubs} is one of those outs and it also happens to be the river card. Mercurio doubles up to 135,000. Slightly more than the 130,000 Cheong is left with.
