Mercier Picks Off Another - Extends Chip Lead

A player holding {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} is all in against Jason Mercier after a flop of {A-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {4-Hearts} . Mercier is behind with {K-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {6-Hearts} but can catch a heart, king, queen or ten to take the lead.

The {K-Hearts} falls on the turn giving the all in player a set, but Mercier the heart flush.

A meaningless {3-Diamonds} comes on the river and Mercier knocks out yet another player.

He has a large chip lead over the rest of the field with 223,000.
