Hand #194: Jesse Sylvia

Level 38 : 400,000/800,000, 100,000 ante

Jake Balsiger had the button. He folded, and Greg Merson raised to 1.6 million from the small blind. At first, Merson actually put out 1.2 million, but was forced to min-raise. Jesse Sylvia called, and the flop came down {Q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

Both players checked, and the turn was the {2-Diamonds}. Merson checked, and Sylvia bet 1.9 million. Merson folded, and Sylvia won the pot.
