Mercurio Speeding Up

[user153515]

Sanghyon Cheong calls from under the gun and Matthew Mercurio moves all in for 62,200. It's folded back to Cheong who makes the call.

Showdown:
Cheong: {j-Spades} {j-Diamonds}
Mercurio: {a-Spades} {10-Hearts}

The flop comes {k-Clubs} {6-Spades} {3-Spades} , bringing no help for Mercurio. The turn is the {10-Spades} , giving Mercurio a few more outs. The {10-Clubs} is one of those outs and it also happens to be the river card. Mercurio doubles up to 135,000. Slightly more than the 130,000 Cheong is left with.
