Level 10
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Harrison Gimbel raised from middle position, Greg Merson three-bet to 8,400 two spots to his left in the hijack, and the action folded back to Gimbel. The 2010 PCA Main Event champion four-bet shoved for effectively 76,100, and Merson went deep into the tank.
"I don't think I'm folding," he said, counting down his stack.
After a minute or so of deliberation, he committed the rest of his stack and revealed 
. He dominated Gimbel's 
.
The 
flop gave both players a pair, but Merson remained ahead with a pair of aces. Neither the 
nor the 
improved Gimbel further, and Merson doubled through.
The dealer counted down the stacks to confirm the amount, and it was a bit higher than tablemate Jared Bleznick expected.
"Wow," he said.
"That's why I didn't snap-call," Merson said, smiling.
Once the dealer was finished, he asked Merson to confirm the count.
"Yeah, yeah whatever," Merson told him, leading the entire table to break out into laughter.

After Matt Glantz opened for 3,500 from under the gun, professional football player Mile Austin tossed two baby blue chips out for a three-bet to 10,000.
Glantz sized up Austin's stack before flatting to see the flop fall 
.
A check to him prompted Austin to c-bet for 21,000, and Glantz rapped the felt in acknowledgement before sliding his cards to the dealer.

We missed the action on this hand, but found Nick Schulman doubling up in a major way after flopping the nuts.
Schulman's 
connected perfectly with the 
flop. His opponent held 
and found top pair, and he improved to top two on the turn. The money went into the middle after that and Schulman's straight dodged four outs to sent a huge pot his way.
