Up All Day to Get Lucky
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Marc-Andre Ladouceur opened under the gun to 85,000, and Ihar Soika (cutoff) and Dmitry Yurasov (button) made the call. Jason Mercier in the small blind pushed all in for 765,000, and the big blind quickly folded. So did Ladouceur, but Soika had other plans. He announced all in over the top, and Yurasov quickly folded.
Ihar Soika: 
Jason Mercier: 
The 
on the flop already wasn't bad, but the 
on the turn was truly magnificent for the Team Pro. Mercier just needed to dodge a nine, ten, and four, and did just that with the 
on the river.
