Merfeldas Eliminated by Grieco

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante
Arvydas Merfeldas
Arvydas Merfeldas

There was an open to 1,700 and Arvydas Merfeldas called before Nicola Grieco three-bet to 6,000. Both players called and the trio saw a {9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop.

It was checked by both players before Grieco moved all in for 50,000. Merfeldas called and they spun their cards on their backs.

Nicola Grieco: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}
Arvydas Merfeldas: {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

It was set vs overpair and Grieco was out of his seat calling for an ace. The {9-Spades} turn gave Merfeldas a full house but added two nines to Grieco's outs.

When Grieco saw the {a-Diamonds} on the river, he couldn't contain his delight, cheering and celebrating to the enjoyment of everyone, including Merfeldas who smiled graciously as he left the table.
