Mermelstein Building Stack
Level 18
Aaron Mermelstein opened from middle position only to see Tomomitsu Ono three-bet from the cutoff. The blinds got out of the way to send the action back to Mermelstein who four-bet and was called.
Mermelstein took one on the first draw while Ono chose to draw two after which Mermelstein check-called a bet from Ono.
The same drawing pattern was repeated on the second draw with Mermelstein now leading out and getting called.
On the final draw Mermelstein declined to draw, checking once Ono took one. Ono checked it back but mucked as Mermelstein showed down Jx8x6x5x4x to concede a sizable pot.
