Jason Mercier Loses Flip to Igor Kurganov
Level 13
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Igor Kurganov raised to 35,000 from early position and Jason Mercier three-bet all in from one seat over for around 230,000. Action folded back to Kurganov, and he called to put Mercier at risk.

Kurganov: 
The 
flop improved Kurganov to a pair of aces, and he stayed ahead with the 
turn and 
river to eliminate Mercier.
