Mercier Doubles Up

Preflop, Dean Bui raised to 20,000 from under the gun. Jason Mercier, from the big blind, moved all-in for his remaining 115,000. Bui called and showed pocket threes and was up against Mercier's {A-Clubs} {10-Spades}. The board came {6-Spades} {4-Spades} {10-Clubs} {9-Spades} {7-Spades} giving Mercier a running flush. Bui is still alive but shortstacked down to 70,000 while Mercier is up to 280,000.

Adam Katz Takes a Big Pot from Jason Mercier

From middle position, Jason Mercier raised to 20,000 and Adam Katz called in the small blind. The flop came {K-Hearts} {10-Spades} {3-Spades}. Katz checked and Mercier followed suit, and when the {5-Diamonds} turned, Katz led out for 35,000 and Mercier called. Katz bet 50,000 when the {J-Diamonds} fell on the river and Mercier again called, mucking when Katz showed down the {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} for the set. Katz is now up to 465,000 while Mercier slipped to 155,000.

Michael Snorden Eliminated

Michael Snorden was shortstacked after moving all in preflop with 10-8 and was called by Yury Shapiro. Shapiro showed pocket queens, flopped a set, and knocked Snorden down to just 50,000. On the next hand, Snorden moved all in with A-10 and was called by Jacques Zaicik who held A-Q. Jacques turned a pair of queens and Snorden was eliminated.

Jason Sanders Eliminates Thong Tran

Thong Tran looked set to double up and win a massive pot when he got all the money in with {K-Hearts} {K-Spades} against Jason Sanders' {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}. The {2-Hearts} {5-Spades} {3-Clubs} flop gave Sanders a gutshot draw but the {J-Diamonds} on the turn kept Tran safe. But just for one card, as the {A-Diamonds} spiked on the river giving Sanders the hand. Tran punched the table and muttered, "My luck, every day!" before leaving the area, and Sanders now sits with 610,000.
