Sitbon Takes from Merlin
Level 21
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Pierre Merlin raised to 40,000 friom under the gun. Julien Sitbon in the hijack went into the tank and called.
The dealer fanned a flop of 6♣J♦5♥ where Merlin checked, so Sitbon bet 40,000 and Merlin made the call.
Both players checked the 3♣ turn leading to the A♣ river where Merlin checked again. Sitbon then asked for 135,000 and Merlin decided to call. However he had to sent his cards into the muck after Sitbon flipped over A♠2♠ for top pair.
