Mercier Hits the Showers

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

Jason Mercier raised it up to 7,000 from under the gun, leaving himself with 11,500 behind. It folded around to the big blind, Tobias Hausen, and he made the call. The flop came down {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, and Hausen checked to Mercier, who quickly moved all in. Hausen called, and the cards were tabled.

Mercier: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Hausen: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

Mercier was in trouble, as he would need to pair his ace or queen to take the high, and the only low card he could catch was a deuce. None of those came though, as the turn was the {j-Clubs}, and the river the {k-Clubs}.

It isn't all bad news for Mercier though, as late registration is still open in the $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em Six Handed. We expect him to quickly register for that while the window is still open.

Sands Wins!

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

We arrived at the table, just as David Sands and his opponent finished off their pre-flop betting exchange. Sands’ opponent was all in for his last 20,000 and showed {A-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}, which was up against {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{3-Spades}{9-Clubs}. The board ran out {K-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{9-Spades}{J-Spades}{K-Hearts}, to see Sands awarded with the pot.

“I won an all in,” rejoiced Sands, as the pot was pushed his way.

Judah on the River

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

The player on the button opened to 3,600, and was called by Mel Judah from the blinds, as the flop came down {3-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. Judah check-called a continuation bet of 3,500 and then again check-called a bet of 6,000 on the {2-Spades} turn. The {5-Hearts} completed the board, as Judah quickly moved all in for his last 24,000 in chips. His opponent wasn’t too pleased with the move, as his mucked his hand moments later.

Seth's Wheel Scoops a Monster

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Andy Seth was in the middle of a three way pot on a flop of {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} when we arrived at the table. It was checked to Seth, who fired out 4,500. Only one player called, and the turn was the {4-Spades}. Seth led out again for 8,700, and his opponent was in the tank for about 90 seconds. Eventually, he casually announced "pot", and Seth shrugged and said "I'm all in." His opponent didn't look thrilled as he called it off, and after the cards were tabled, we could see why.

Seth: {a-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Seth needed to dodge a club, ace, or a four to scoop the whole pot, and he did just that, as the {2-Hearts} hit the river. Seth took down the monster pot, and upped is stack to 110,000 in the process.
