Mercier Still Dragging Pots
Nível 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 2,400 ante
Brian Rast raised to 3,600 from late position and got called by Jason Mercier on the button and Cary Katz in the big blind as all three headed to the draw.
Katz took one with Rast and Mercier doing the same.
All three players checked through to showdown with Katz showing J♦9♥8♣3♦2♣. Rast quickly said, "I've got a jack-eight" only to immediately hear Mercier say, "I can beat that" before turning over 10♣9♣6♥4♣3♠ to win the pot.
Mercier is literally only a few hours removed from winning his sixth bracelet in the $1,500 buy-in of this exact game variant and won this very event in 2016, so it's safe to say that he is well-equipped and prepared to make a deep run here.
