Two Pair for Merson
Greg Merson raised to 250,000 from the cutoff, and Jesse Sylvia and Jamie Robbins called from the button and big blind respectively. The 
flop saw action go check-check to Sylvia, who bet 340,000. Only Merson made the call and it was heads-up to the 
turn, which both players checked.
The 
river saw Merson lead out for 525,000, and after a long pause, Sylvia raised to 1.14 million. After a call was made, Sylvia sheepishly revealed 
, which was no good against Merson's 
.
