Kyle Merron

Kyle Merron raised to 400,000 from under the gun, leaving himself with about 220,000 behind. Aaron Pinson called on the button before Scott Baumstein moved all in from the big blind.

Merron called and Pinson called as well. Pinson was all in for 1,855,000 and all three hands were tabled.

Merron: Qs10d
Baumstein: KhKc
Pinson: AsAc

Merron was in bad shape, but the cold deck produced a massive side pot between Pinson and Baumstein.

The board ran out Jh7h5s2s3d, which sent both the main and the side pot to Pinson and eliminated Merron in fifth place for $26,570.

Aaron Pinson – 3,700,000
Scott Baumstein – 4,650,000
Kyle Merron – Eliminated
