Merson Loses with Kings Again

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Andrew Hinrichsen raised to 21,000 from under the gun and Greg Merson three-bet to 46,000. Jesse Sylvia moved all in for 177,000 from middle position and all players folded to Hinrichsen, who got out of the way as well. Merson quickly tossed in a chip to confirm the call.

Merson: {K-Hearts}?{K-Spades}
Sylvia: {A-Clubs}?{K-Diamonds}

The {A-Hearts}?{9-Clubs}?{2-Hearts}?{4-Hearts}?{A-Diamonds} board was once again a massive blow to the stack of Merson and he was all in for 70,000 chips from under the gun the very next hand. Sylvia asked for a count and made the call whereas all other players folded.

Merson: {A-Clubs}?{6-Spades}
Sylvia: {J-Clubs}?{J-Spades}

Now it was Merson at risk with the worse hand preflop and he should double up as well as the board ran out {A-Hearts}?{8-Hearts}?{9-Spades}?{9-Hearts}?{Q-Clubs}.
