Pot-Limit Omaha

We caught the action on a {5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Spades} flop with approximately 110,000 in the pot. Jason Mercier had moved all in from the big blind for his last 41,800 and David Benyamine called from the under-the-gun position. Kevin Song then raise the size of the pot from the button and drove Benyamine from the hand.

Song: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Mercier: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{7-Spades}

Song had flopped a set and had Mercier in dire straights. A queen was Mercier's best bet, but neither the {4-Clubs} turn nor {K-Hearts} river were the lady he was looking for. With that, Mercier grabbed his backpack and made a hasty exit from the tournament floor.
