Fama Eliminates Merlin

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

The player on the button limped. Pierre Merlin, in the small blind, moved all in for 23,000. Lee Fama, in the big blind, reshoved for 36,000. The button folded.

Lee Fama: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Pierre Merlin: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Fama hit a pretty favorable flop of {4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. The {4-Clubs} turn and {2-Spades} river completed the board and Fama won the pot, sending Merlin to the exit.
