Hand #273: Merson Retakes the Chip Lead

Level 40 : 600,000/1,200,000, 200,000 ante

Greg Merson was on the button, and he folded. Jesse Sylvia limped in from the small blind, and Jake Balsiger raised to 3.2 million from the big blind. Sylvia released, and Balsiger picked up the pot.

With that pot, Merson is now the chip leader.
