Mercier a Popular Pick

Greg Mueller opened for 400, Jason Mercier called, then Eli Elezra reraised to 2,100. Mueller stepped aside, but Mercier came along.

Mercier took one card while Elezra stood pat. Mercier then pushed all in for 4,600, and Elezra made the call.

Mercier showed {10-}{7-}{6-}{5-}{2-}. Elezra showed {10-}{8-}-X-X-X, and Mercier took a nice-sized pot.

"Good for my team!" quipped Daniel Negreanu afterward, alluding to the fact that he has Mercier on his fantasy team for the WSOP.

Mercier has 13,000 at present with all three add-ons. Elezra, meanwhile, is down to 3,500, but also has all three of his add-ons in reserve.
