Merk Hits the Hearts
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Abby Merk moved her last 14,000 into the middle from early position and was at risk after Wantao Tang called on her left.
Abby Merk: A♥7♥ 
Wantao Tang: K♦Q♣
Merk watched as Tang found a pair on the J♦8♥K♥ flop, only to take back the lead by completing her flush on the Q♥ turn. Tang was unable to fill up on the 3♣ river, leaving Merk with the double up.
