Aaron Mermelstein raised to 3,600 in middle position and was called by the player in the big blind.
The flop came down and it was checked to Mermelstein. He bet 6,100, only to see his opponent shove for 38,000. A quick call from Mermelstein revealed
for a flopped flush, now way ahead of his opponent's
. The
turn kept Mermelstein ahead, but the
fell on the river and made an ace-high flush for Mermelstein's opponent.
