Brion’s aces cracked, down to 14k


With a pot of around 11k in the middle and a board of K 10 A 7, Aaron Mermelstein bet the pot and Ian Brion called. The river of 8 had Mermelstein betting 21k, and again Brion couldn’t get away from his hand and called. Mermelstein opened up Q J for a winning straight against Brion’s A A set.
