Hand #352: Merson Fires Flop and Turn

Level 41 : 800,000/1,600,000, 200,000 ante

Jesse Sylvia had the button to start this hand. He folded, and Jake Balsiger limped in from the small blind. Greg Merson checked his option, and the flop came down {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Balsiger checked, and Merson fired two million. Balsiger made the call.

The {10-Clubs} appeared on the turn, and Balsiger checked again. Merson fired 3.5 million, and Balsiger gave it up.
