Kwaysser checked fourth street to Mercier, who bet out. Lester raised and then Kwaysser folded. Mercier made the call. On each street to follow, Mercier led the betting with Lester calling.
Mercier showed the 
from his holecards for queens full of eights. Lester held the 
and made a 8-7-5-4-3 low and the two chopped up the pot.
Both Lester and Mercier have a little over 11,000 in chips.
