When Will it End?!

Jason Mercier got the last 20,800 of his chips into the middle preflop a moment ago, and he would soon be presented with a bit of bad news. The Team PokerStars Pro was working with {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts}, and Kevin Stani looked him up with the dominating {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}, putting Mercier five cards from the exit.

The board ran out in Mercier's favor, though, coming {9-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} to secure his double. Finally, the American catches a break! He's back up to about 44,000 now and back in the game.
