Aces for the Champ

Level 2 : 150/300, 25 ante

Greg Merson and Cary Katz were heads up on a flop of {5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} with around 15,000 in the middle, and Merson opted to check. Katz checked behind, the river was the {j-Hearts}, and both players knuckled. Merson tabled {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} for a pair of aces, and Katz mucked.
