Daniel Clemente Drops a Pair of Hands

Daniel Clemente opens to 40,000 from middle position and Corey Wade elects to bump it up to 125,000 on the button. Clemente slams in a four-bet of 350,000, Wade jams, and Clemente respectively declines.

The tables break and Clemente finds himself in the big blind, facing an under the gun raise of 40,000 by Aaron Mermelstein that Harpreet Padda called in the small blind. 

Clemente three-bets to 140,000 and only Mermelstein calls to check out the flop. Clemente continues with a bet of 110,000, Mermelstein calls, and the peels off as a turn card.

Mermelstein receives a check of action to him and he jams for roughly 190,000. Clemente lets the hand go without much hesitation, shipping off another piece of his stack.

Aaron Mermelstein – 725,000 (36 bb)
Corey Wade – 2,700,000 (135 bb)
Daniel Clemente – 345,000 (18 bb)
