Jason Mercier raised in the hijack and Gus Hansen called in the small blind. Phil Ivey then reraised in the big blind and both Mercier and Hansen called.
The flop came 5♥A♥J♥ and Ivey continued with a bet. Mercier and Hansen called again to see the K♥ turn.
Hansen then led out with a bet and Ivey called. Mercier raised, Hansen folded, while Ivey stuck around to see the 5♦ river.
Ivey then bet. "Oh man," Mercier sighed before tossing in the chips to call. Ivey showed him J♠J♣ for a rivered full house and Mercier tossed Q♥Q♣ into the muck.
"That's how you win bracelets. Yep, that's how you win bracelets," Hansen said following the hand.
