Mermelstein on Meteoric Rise
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Raphael Bilger limped in from the cutoff. Sardor Shagulyamov then raised to 7,500 on the button, and Yuliyan Kolev responded with a three-bet jam for 84,000 in the small blind.
The action was not done yet, as big blind Aaron Mermelstein reshoved, covering all opponents. Bilger and Shagulyamov quickly folded.
Yuliyan Kolev: 10♠10♣
Aaron Mermelstein: K♦K♣
Mermelstein's kings held on the 4♣9♦2♠6♣7♣ runout, seeing him cross 13 starting stacks in chips.
