Set for Stevie Z

Level 4

Limit Hold'em

Before the break, Steve Zolotow checked to Jason Mercier with the board reading {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}, and Mercier tossed out a bet. Zolotow check-raised, and Mercier made the call.

The turn was the {2-Hearts}, and Zolotow led out. Mercier put in two bets, Zolotow made it three, and Mercier called.

The river was the {q-Diamonds}, and Mercier opted to just call a bet from Zolotow. Zolotow opened up {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for a set of nines, and Mercier mucked his hand.
