Jason Mercier limped in from the cutoff and Daniel Negreanu raised to 10,000 on the button. Michael Mizrachi called in the big blind and Mercier also called.
Mizrachi and Mercier checked on the flop of 2♣A♣5♣ and Negreanu continued for 11,000. Mizrachi called and Mercier check-raised to 48,000. Negreanu folded and Mizrachi called.
Mizrachi checked on the K♠ turn and Mercier sized up to 102,000. Mizrachi called. Mizrachi checked once more on the 3♠ river and Mericer checked back.
"What the f***!" Negreanu said as Mercier checked back.
Mizrachi showed Q♣J♣10♥6♣ for a queen-high flush and Mercier mucked in defeat as he showed Negreanu the 3♣.
"I thought he had three-four of clubs for sure," said Negreanu, who noted that he had the K♣ in his hand.
"Funky hand," Mercier said glumly.
