McDermott Ousts Emerson
Level 8
: 300/600, 600 ante
Tylan Wilkerson limped in early position, Tim McDermott raised to 1,800 in the hijack, and Thomas Emerson three-bet all in for 21,000 total.
Action folded back around to McDermott, who made the call.
Thomas Emerson: 
Tim McDermott: 
Board: 
Emerson was at risk and found himself up against McDermott's pocket aces, with the flop giving McDermott top set. A heart came in on the turn, giving Emerson hopes of a river flush, but that flush didn't come, and Emerson headed to the exit.
