Mercier Hits the Ground Running
Level 5
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
The tournament is only four levels old, but Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier already sits on just shy of three times the starting stack.

when we caught Stephen Chidwick fold after both Kenney and Mercier had 5,300 invested in the pot.
The turn brought the 
and now Mercier check-called a bet of 11,000, putting the 
on the river.
Mercier checked again, and Kenney checked behind. Mercier showed 
and Kenney mucked his cards, one by one.
