Hand #288: Merson Wins After Limping Button

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

Greg Merson had the button to stat this hand. He limped in, and Jesse Sylvia called from the small blind. Jake Balsiger checked from the big blind to bring all three players to a family flop.

The {7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades} fell, and action checked to Merson. He fired a bet of two million, and each of his opponents folded.
