Big Bet by Merrifield

Steven Merrifield raised to 33,000 under the gun and was called by Hans Winzeler in the big blind. Merrifield proceeded to check-call bets of 41,000 on the {3-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop, and 57,000 on the {6-Hearts} turn. When the {A-Spades} spiked on the river, Merrifield counted out big bet and slide forward 190,000.

Winzeler immediately stood from his chair and took his hat off. He clearly wasn't happy about being put to the test. Merrifield remainined still as Winzeler counted out his chips, stacked them up, and pondered the hand. Eventually he laid it down as Merrifield silently slid his cards to the dealer.
