Merson Has The Goods
Picking up the action on the river, 2012 WSOP Main Event champion Greg Merson from early position was involved in a hand with a player in the small blind.
With the board reading 
and about 14,000 in the pot the small blind checked. Merson fired off 7,600 and his opponent went into the tank. After a minute or so the small blind asked how much Merson had behind, which turned out to be 40,100. Another minute of thought followed before the small blind announced a raise to 21,500.
That prompted Merson to consider his options. Eventually he pushed the remainder of his stack into the middle and it did not take long for the small blind to give up, sending a large pot Merson's direction. Before tossing his hand into the muck, Merson revealed he had held 
for the nuts.
