Mercier Caught
We wish we'd seen more of this pot, but we only walked up to the river of a 
board in time to see the final actions. There was 20,575 in the middle of the table already, and Jason Mercier had a bet (or a raise, but most probably a bet) of 10,750 out in front of him. He was heads-up with an out-of-position opponent, and Mr. Opponent spent some time mulling it over before dropping the call into the pot.
Mercier rainbowed his airball 
into the air and onto the felt, knowing he'd been snagged. His opponent's 
was better, and good enough to take the pot and knock Mercier down to about 16,000.
