Markus Gonsalves raised UTG+1, Aaron Mermelstein moved all in from the cutoff for 34,500, and Matthew Zarcadoolas thought for a while before moving all in over the top for about 130,000. Gonsalves thought for a while before he folded.

Mermelstein turned over Ah10d, and he needed to improve to stay alive against the QdQc of Zarcadoolas.

The board came 6c5s2d6h3s, and the pocket queens held up for Zarcadoolas to win the pot and eliminate Mermelstein.

Matthew Zarcadoolas  –  180,000  (60 bb)
Aaron Mermelstein  –  Eliminated
