Greg Merson Eliminated in 52nd Place ($200,000)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Lautaro Guerra opened the action in the hijack with A♠J♠ and a raise to 400,000, and Greg Merson in the big blind made the call with 8♣6♥.
The flop came down 3♣8♥Q♦, and Guerra continued for what Merson had left, putting him at risk, and Merson made the call.
Merson was ahead with his pair of eights, but the J♥ turn changed that quickly as Guerra made a pair of jacks. The 9♠ didn't change anything, sending Merson to the rail.
