Right after winning a hand against Ian Brion, Aaron Mermelstein three-bet Tetsuya Tsuchikawa’s raise of 2100 to 6500. Tsuchikawa called and the dealer felted 5♥ Q♣ 8♣. Acting first, Mermelstein bet 5600 and Tsuchikawa called. On fourth street of 8♠, they both checked. Then on the river of 2♠, Mermelstein bet 8200 and Tsuchikawa called. Mermelstein showed his 9♠ 6♥ bluff and lost to Tsuchikawa’s K♣ Q♠ pair.
