Jason Mercier on Day 1c of the Main Event.

We caught Jason Mercier calling an all in from a short stack player preflop for just about 10,000 chips.

Mercier: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
All In: {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} keeping Mercier well in front. The turn was the {J-Clubs} which was still safe for Mercier, but gave the all in player a few extra outs. The river was the {7-Hearts} and that was safe for Mercier to grab the knockout and the chips from the all in player, giving him a much needed little boost here on Day 2.
