Mercier Takes Command
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 150,000 ante
Jason Mercier raised to 200,000 on the button holding Ax9x6x4x3x and Brad Ruben folded. Mike Watson picked up four to a wheel in the big blind (7x4x3x2x2x) and three-bet to 800,000.
Mercier came along with the call for both players to draw one card. Watson caught the Ax while Mercier improved to a ninety-six with a 5x.
Watson checked, Mercier bet 960,000, and Watson laid it down.
