Mercier Bests Kagawa

Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier bet 2,200 on the {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop into his opponent, Masa Kagawa. After some thought, Kagawa raised to 6,200. Mercier called.

The turn was the {Q-Spades} and both players checked. They also checked after the {2-Diamonds} landed on the river.

Kagawa opened up his hand to show the {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for two pair, queens and fives. Mercier held the {A-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for a better two pair, aces and fives, to scoop in the pot.

Dead Flowers

Randal Flowers was crippled when his hand got beat by Reza Mostafavi's {6-Spades}{4-Clubs} on a {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{7-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} board, though we're not exactly sure when the money went in.

The rest of his chips went in preflop with {Q-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and he was called by Kristijonas Andrulis and Alexander Roumeliotis. The Lithuanian pushed the Swede out of the pot on the turn of the {8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs} board with {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and Flowers couldn't hit any of his outs on the {J-Diamonds} river.

Sointula Shoves On Melkonyan

From under the gun, Jani Sointula raised to 2,500. The player in the cutoff seat called and then Gurgen Melkonyan reraised from the small blind to 10,000. Sointula reraised to 18,000 and the cutoff seat folded. Melkonyan made the call, though.

The flop came down {Q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and Melkonyan checked. Sointula fired 10,000 and Melkonyan tanked for a couple of minutes before calling.

The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and Melkonyan checked again. Sointula moved all in and Melkonyan folded after some brief thought.
