Merson Closes the Curtain on Tilly

We noticed Jennifer Tilly exiting the tournament floor and made our way over to Table 16, which is where she had been seated. We saw October Niner stacking a pot and he was kind enough to inform us that he'd been the one to do the deed.

According to Merson, Tilly had opened for 1,100 and then called when he three-bet to 2,200. When the flop fell {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, Tilly shipped for approximately 8,000 with {4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Merson called with {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. The turn was a {4-}, giving Tilly the lead, but the {7-} on the river completed Merson's straight and allowed him to knock out the Academy Award winning actress.
