Merson Moves All In

Cylus Watson raised to 225,000 from middle position only to have Greg Merson three-bet to 675,000 from the button. The blinds got out of the way, and Watson responded with a four-bet to 1.5 million. Merson paused for a moment before moving all in, and Watson quickly released his hand.
