Mercier Shot Down by Baumgartner

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

On Table 10, Jacob Baumgartner raised to 300 from the under-the-gun position and was only called by Natasha Mercier in the big blind.

The flop came {3-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and Mercier checked. Baumgartner bet 400, Mercier raised to 1,200, then Baumgartner reraised to 4,000. Mercier shoved and Baumgartner snap-called with the slightly bigger stack.

Natasha Mercier: {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Jacob Baumgartner: {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

Mercier was hoping for another club for her flush to complete as Baumgartner had flopped a set of treys. The rest of the board was completed with the {A-Spades} on the turn and the {2-Spades} on the river to take Mercier out of the shootout.

Shortly after, on the same table, Joe Cada eliminated Brandon Butler from the tournament.
