Mermelstein Hits Three Million
Level 6
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Aaron Mermelstein opened to 22,000 from the cutoff and snap-called when Matheus Lima jammed for around 150,000 from the big blind.
Matheus Lima: A♦7♦
Aaron Mermelstein: Q♦Q♣
Lima had gutshot on the 6♦5♣3♣ flop, and picked up a flush draw on the 5♦ turn to have plenty of outs. Unfortunately for him, Mermelstein made a boat on the Q♠ river, securing the elimination and chip lead.
