Bronshtein Stands Pat Against Mercier

Steve Zolotow just took his seat at this table and Yuval Bronshtein gave him 25,000. Zolotow pretended to put it in his pocket.

"No problem. A little head start for the old guys," Bronshtein joked before Zolotow handed him a green 25,000 chip for change.

Bronshtein then raised on the button and Jason Mercier called in the big blind. Mercier drew three and Bronshtein one.

Bronshtein bet and Mercier called. Mercier drew two and Bronshtein one again. Bronshtein bet once more and Mercier again called.

Bronshtein stood pat this time, while Mercier drew one. Bronshtein bet again and Mercier gave up his hand.
