Merson Limps In, Viox Bluffs Three Streets
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Greg Merson limped in with Q♥10♦ from the cutoff and Chris Viox checked his option in the big blind with A♥4♥.
On the Q♠2♠J♠ flop, Viox led out for 25,000 and Merson called to the 5♦ turn, where again Viox fired out a bet, this time for 75,000. Merson called again.
A 7♣ hit the river and Viox bet 85,000 with his ace-high, which wasn't enough to force out Merson, who quickly called with his pair of queens to win the pot.
