Mermelstein Busts Bithell to Take Chip Lead
Niveau 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
George Turner opened to 200,000 in the cutoff and Oliver Bithell moved all in for what looked to be 2,235,000 on the button. Aaron Mermelstein took some time to deliberate in the big blind as the cameras surrounded the table, and eventually called, while Turner folded.
Oliver Bithell: 
Aaron Mermelstein: 
Bithell was in rough shape as the dealer fanned the 
flop, and the 
turn left him drawing dead to the 
river, while Mermelstein moved into the chip lead.
