Samuel Shamburg Doubles Through Tony Merksick

Robert Wisiak raised to 4,200 from early position. Action folded around to Tony Merksick who called from the button. Samuel Shamburg moved all in from the big blind for 22,400. Wisiak thought a bit before finally folding and Merksick made the call. The players showed:

Merksick: {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Shamburg: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

The flop came {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Wisiak winced. He loudly declared "I folded eight-seven of hearts." The turn and river bricked for Merksick and Shamburg doubled through.
