Merson Doubles Against Bizarre Massive Overbet Jam on Flop

Level 4 : 125/250, 25 ante
Greg Merson
Greg Merson

"takeleschu" opened to 500 from middle position and Greg "DustedYou" Merson defended the big blind.

The flop fell {k-Spades}{q-Spades}{6-Hearts}, Merson checked, and "takeleschu" jammed into the 1,300 pot. Merson thought about it and called for his 34,447 chips.

Greg "DustedYou" Merson: {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
"takeleschu": {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

It was a bold strategy for "takeleschu", but it didn't pay off, as the {6-Diamonds} and {j-Clubs} completed the board to give the 2012 WSOP Main Event winner the double.

"takeleschu" was left with only 2,841 chips, and busted shortly after.
