Michael Merichko was all in preflop for his last 134,000 and had one foot out the door holding {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

when the first four community cards were spread {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

{3-Spades}

as his opponent Reed Hensel showed down {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{J-Diamonds}

.

However the river was the {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

and Merichko is saved by the king to double up to 275,000. It hasn't been a good level or so for Hansel since he burst the bubble as he's back to 300,000.
