Mercier Busts to His Friend

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

We noticed Jason Mercier was no longer in his seat, and a quick check with his friend, Kyle Julius, confirmed that he had been eliminated. In fact, Julius had done the deed.

The details of Mercier's final hand escaped us, but Julius filled us in on some details.

"He got short in a multiway pot," Julius explained. "I had a set and the nut flush draw, he had a gutter and a ten-high flush draw."

Mercier obviously missed and he sent his stack over to Julius, who had done a good job chipping up here on Day 2.

Mercer Spikes Set to Stay Alive

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Heather Sue Mercer
Heather Sue Mercer

Heather Sue Mercer limped in under the gun and Sam Feinberg potted to 8,000 from the small blind. Mercer moved all-in for 18,800 and Feinberg called.

Feinberg: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Mercer: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{3-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{Q-Clubs} to see Mercer double through to just under 40,000 as Feinberg slipped to 140,000 in chips.

Watson Continues to Thrive, but Not Kitai

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

Mike Watson raised to 5,000 from the hijack only to have Davidi Kitai, who began the day as chip leader, three-bet to 14,000 from the cutoff. The button and blinds all folded, and then Watson pushed back with a four-bet to 45,000.

Kitai thought for a bit before making the call and the flop came down {3-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. Watson took stock of Kitai's stack and then announced a bet of 90,000. Kitai took a minute or so and then slid his cards to the dealer.

Leung Eliminates Anderson and Velador

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

On a flop of {7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} with Calvin Anderson all-in preflop, Jose-Luis Velador checked to Joseph Leung who bet out 8,200. Velador check-raised all in for 18,200 and after some deliberation, Leung made the call.

Anderson: {8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Spades}
Velador: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Leung: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

The turn and river landed the {10-Diamonds} and {10-Spades} and Leung eliminated both Anderson and Velador while simultaneously moving to over 160,000 in chips.

"I'd Have Bet the Farm"

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

With around 10,000 in the pot and a flop of {j-Clubs}{8-Spades}{q-Clubs}, Eoghan O'Dea checked from the cutoff and Phil Laak bet 7,700 from the button. O'Dea thought for awhile before making the call and then turned right around and led out for 22,000 on the {10-Spades} turn. Laak wasted little time in folding his hand.

"I would have bet the farm you were check-raising the flop," Sam Feinberg told O'Dea after the hand. "I don't have a farm but...," he trailed off as O'Dea simply smiled.

More for Crawford

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

The exact action escaped us, but we do know that Brandon Crawford bet pot on an {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop and his opponent, who had roughly 40,000, called off.

Crawford: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{8-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Crawford was sitting pretty with aces and the flush draw, and he was no doubt happy to see his opponent get marred to pocket kings. The {5-Hearts} turn gave Crawford the said flush, and the {3-Spades} river gave him the pot.
