Hand #374: Flop Shove from Merson

Level 41 : 800,000/1,600,000, 200,000 ante

Jake Balsiger had the button to start this hand. He folded, and Greg Merson limped from the small blind. Jesse Sylvia raised to 4.2 million, and Merson made the call to take a flop.

The {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Spades} fell, and Merson fired 6.2 million. Sylvia took his time, then put in a raise to 14.4 million in all. Merson jammed all in, and Sylvia quickly folded his hand.
