Morrell Takes Showdown Pot From Lococo

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Alejandro Lococo raised to 350,000 from the button and Aaron Mermelstein called from the small blind before Gerald Morrell came along from the big blind.

The flop was {j-Spades}{a-Spades}{8-Clubs} and action checked to Lococo on the button. He bet 425,000 and Mermelstein folded while Morrell tossed in the chips to call.

Both players checked through the {7-Spades} turn and {j-Diamonds} river before Morrell turned over {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a pair of aces. Lococo mucked the losing hand and Morrell dragged the pot.
