"Can't beat you, Jason"

From under the gun, Jason Mercier raised to 4,000. Hoyt Corkins reraised to 9,000 from the cutoff seat and action folded back to Mercier. He made the call and the flop came down {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. Both players checked and the turn brought the {7-Clubs}. Both players checked again.

The river completed the board with the {7-Diamonds} and Mercier bet 11,200. Corkins called and Mercier tabled the {K-Spades}{10-Spades}. Corkins mucked and Mercier won the pot.

"I guess I shoulda bet," said Corkins. "Can't beat you, Jason, with the worst hand or the best hand."
