Mermelstein Flops an Ace to Eliminate Medarov
Level 17
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Aaron Mermelstein raised it up to 55,000 in early position and Vasil Medarov three-bet the pot to 195,000 on his left. The action folded back to Mermelstein who just called.
The flop fell 
and Mermelstein checked to Medarov who pushed all in for his last 200,000 chips. Mermelstein instantly called and showed 
for a pair of aces and a flush draw. Medarov held 
and was drawing pretty slim.
The 
on the turn and the 
on the river changed nothing as Medarov was sent to the rail.
