Things in Life That Are Certain

We all know in this life that the Sun is going to shine, just as we know that "haters gonna hate", but one thing that is just as definite is that Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier doesn't lose the big crucial flips.

He made a cold 4-bet with {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} from the big blind over the top of small blind Rupert Elder's 3-bet against the button. The button folded and Elder set Mercier in for what was a 110,000 pot with {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}. Call.

The board came {J-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and although Elder rivered a straight, Mercier already had a boat on the turn. Elder dropped to 18,000.
