Mercier Among Late Casualties

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier was among the late casualties of Day 2 after the bubble had burst, and he was joined on the rail by Peter Eichhardt and Byron Kaverman.

Douglas Ferreira Souza three-bet an open raise from 6,000 to 18,000, and Mercier four-bet shoved from one seat over for around 120,000. The initial raiser folded, but Souza called to put Mercier at risk.

Jason Mercier: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Douglas Ferreira Souza: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

On a board of {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}, the Brazilian paired his ace on the flop and Mercier had to settle for a min-cash worth €7,580.
