Merlo Moving Up

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Yoan Merlo open raised on the cutoff, the small blind called, which put him all in, and Jeremy Pekarek called from the big blind.

Merlo and Pekarek went heads-up to the side pot on a {k-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{a-Spades} flop, and Pekarek check-called a 6,200 bet from Merlo.

Both players checked the {6-Clubs} turn, and Pekarek checked the river {10-Diamonds}, and immediately folded as Merlo started putting together a bet.

Merlo showed {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, scooping with the broadway straight.
