Mercier Over 6MM
Action folded to Jason Mercier on the button and he raised to 120,000. Bill Perkins reraised from the big blind to 350,000 and Mercier flatted.
After the 
flop, Perkins bet 350,000 and Mercier made the call. That brought the two players to the 
turn card and both checked. The river was the 
and Perkins bet 555,000. Mercier called.
"King high," said Perkins, which confused Mercier for a second as the board was king high.
Mercier double checked his hand and then turned up the 
. Perkins mucked and Mercier won the pot.
