Aaron Mermelstein Chips Up
Level 1
: 25/50, 0 ante
With the flop of 
already on board, Aaron Mermelstein called a bet along with one other player to take the 
turn three-handed.
On fourth street all three checked down, and the river card came 
to complete the board.
Mermelstein fired a 300 bet when it was checked to him, one player called and the checker then popped the action up to 1,550. Mermelstein deliberated for more than a minute before ultimately making the call. The opponent in between quickly mucked and Mermelstein announced "I can only beat ace-king" while waiting to see what he was up against.
The river raiser tabled 
for second pair, and with his 
Mermelstein was happy to discover that he could beat more than just ace-king.
