Mercier Attacks Buckenmayer's Three-Bet
Action folded to two-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner Jason Mercier in the cutoff seat, and he raised to 2,000. Robert Buckenmayer, who placed 17th in this year's WSOP Main Event for $369,026, reraised from the button to 5,000. Play folded through the blinds and back to Mercier. He took only a few seconds before making it 12,800 to go. Buckenmayer folded, and Mercier won the pot.
