[user75032]

Isabelle Mercier has defied the trend so far today of women players having tough afternoons. Mercier is currently sitting behind about 15,000, but just gave some of those chips back in a heads-up pot. She was the preflop aggressor, putting in a raise to 450 chips. One player called that raise, then called another bet of 650 on the flop of {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{6-Clubs}

{j-Clubs}

. Mercier slowed down when the turn came {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

, checking the action. Her opponent checked it right back, bringing the two players to the river. That card fell {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

. Mercier seemed to consider betting but thought better of it and checked. She then folded to a bet of 1,300.
