Matthew Mendez raises under the gun to 34,000, Ronit Chamani calls from the hijack, and Robert Merulla moves all in from the button for 466,000. Mendez moves all in over the top, and Chamani folds.
Mendez turns over [AhKd], and he’s racing against Merulla’s [JcJs]. Merulla needs his hand to hold to stay alive.
The board comes [9d5d5c7s4h], and the pocket jacks hold up for Merulla to win the pot and double up in chips.
Robert Merulla – 992,000 (62 bb)
Matthew Mendez – 102,000 (6 bb)
