Allemann Doubles Through Mercier

There was an unknown raise before Anton Allemann three-bet on the button to 10,200. Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier four-bet from the small blind to 22,500 and action folded back over to Allemann. He took his time, then called.

The flop came down {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Mercier fired a bet of 16,500. After a bit of thought, Allemann made the call to see the turn.

Fourth street was the {Q-Clubs} and Mercier bet 30,000. Allemann called again and left himself with 85,700 behind.

The river was the {6-Diamonds} and Mercier took a moment to get a look at Allemann's stack. Then, he bet enough to put Allemann all in. Allemann quickly called with the {8-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a straight. Mercier showed the {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}, but it was the losing hand and he was knocked back to 136,700 in chips.
