Kocheiche Gets Merten to Fold

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Thomas Merten raised to 400 from the button and was called by Rizkallah Kocheiche and Andreas Giedt in the blinds.

The flop came {7-Spades}{a-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and both Kocheiche and Giedt checked. Merten, however, bet 500. Kocheiche called and Giedt folded.

The turn brought them the {9-Diamonds}, Kocheiche check-raised to 3,000 when Merten bet 1,100.

"What did you pick up there?" Merten asked Kocheiche.

"What?" Kocheiche asked.

Merten repeated the question and Kocheiche just shrugged and smiled.

Merten folded.

"Do you want to see?" Kocheiche asked Merten now.

"Yes" Merten replied.

Kocheiche showed {7-Diamonds}{5-Spades} for the flopped two pair, sevens and fives.
