Mercier Makes A Move On The River

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

We picked up the action with Jason Mercier, who check-called his opponent's 3,800 bet on the flop. The board read {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{4-Diamonds} as the players went to the turn.

The turn came the {10-Diamonds}, which prompted another 6,300 check-call from Mercier. The river came {9-Hearts}, which put a backdoor straight on the board. Mercier bet out 14,800, and his opponent folded. Mercier won the pot without confrontation, bringing his stack up to around 75,000.
