Battle of the Blinds
Level 6
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Action folded around to Gus Hansen in the small blind and he raised to 22,000, which Jason Mercier called from the big. Both players checked the 
flop, bringing about the 
river. Again Hansen checked, and this time Mercier fired out 19,000. The "Great Dane" laid down his hand and Mercier took a small one.
