Aleksandr Merzhvsinkiy raised to 110,000 from the cutoff and kept 15,000 behind. Action folded to Ricardo Da Rocha in the big blind who shoved with the bigger stack. As a pay jump was up, Merzhvinskiy tanked and asked for a count. The dealer initially hesitated in doing so but when the floor was called over, he complied. Da Rocha had 482,000 behind.
Merzhvinskiy tanked, displaying his five time bank cards in front of him. Over on another table, an all-in and call could be heard and by the time the fourth time bank card was used, Merzhvinskiy made the call.
Aleksandr Merzhvinskiy: 
Ricardo Da Rocha: 
The board ran out 
for Merzhvinskiy to hit the river to stay alive and pick up the pay jump.
