Mercier Bluffs Big: Kaverman Folds Kings on the River

Level 10 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Byron Kaverman

We picked up the action on a board of {4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and Jason Mercier checked from the hijack. Byron Kaverman on the button made a small bet of 15,000 and Mercier check raised to 67,500 after he used a time breaker chip first. Kaverman made the call.

The {A-Clubs} fell on the river and Mercier shoved all in for effectively 147,000 after giving it some thoughts. Kaverman, who had {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts} showing, tanked for a long time and eventually tossed in a time breaker chip. He thought some more before putting in his last time breaker chip as well. Eventually Kaverman reluctantly folded his hand.

Mercier had {Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a stone cold bluff and grabbed the chips in the pot! "What a spectacular bluff!" Somerville called it.
