Merkow Wins with Choctaw Nuts
Nível 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In a limped pot, the flop came 
and after his opponent, Smith Collins checked, Gregg Merkow bet 3,500 and Collins called.
The turn was the 
and both players checked.
But on the river 
Merkow bet 6,500 and his Smith folded.
"Should I show them what I have?" Merkow asked the guy next to him.
"Of course you should," the player replied.
And with that Merkow showed the table 
the stone-cold Choctaw Nuts for those that are familiar with the North Texas/Oklahoma term
