Mercier Likes the Three-Bet

Jason Mercier

Jason Mercier's stack has been on the rise over the last couple of levels, cracking the 40,000 mark. And with such a deep stack come moves like this one.

Johannes Strassmann opened for 1,200 from early position. The button reraised to 3,200 before Mercier popped it to 9,700, Strassmann quickly got out of the way, and after a stint in the tank, the button folded as well.

And just like that, Mercier added another 5,400 to his stack, taking him up to 48,000.
