FSPC Event #14 (Day 3): Merda Strikes First During Heads-Up, Close To 2:1 Advantage

2018 Florida State Poker Championship
Event #14 | $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 29 (Blinds 50,000/100,000/100,000)
Total Event #14 Entries: 564
Event #14 Players Remaining: 2

The most recent heads-up hand was caught on the turn, which was K♣ 9♣ 5 8.  Jaffe had bet 500,000, with Merda check-raising to 1,500,000.  Jaffe made the call pretty quickly, and the pair would see the board complete with the Q.  Merda announced a river bet of 2,500,000, with Jaffe peering back at his cards.  He'd grab some water, do some talking to Merda, and eventually toss in chips for a call.  Igor tabled 6 7♣, having turned the nut-straight, with Jaffe pushing his cards towards the muck.

Igor Merda - 10,900,000 (109bb)
Jonathan Jaffe - 6,000,000 (60bb)
