Crain Doubles Mercier

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Eric Crain opened the cutoff to 5,000 and Jason Mercier contemplated his options on the button. He made it 15,300 to go after some thinking and instantly called when Crain potted allin. Mercier had good reason to do so with {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} while Crain went to battle with {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

The flop was rather save for Mercier with {4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{6-Spades}. The {3-Diamonds} on the turn brought Crain a lot of outs though. The {5-Clubs} on the river wasn't one of the cards he needed and Mercier doubled.
