Mercier Doubles Through First Hand

Very first hand heads up, and we have incredible all-in action!

Mercier made it 55,000, and Juanda made it all in to go. Mercier thought about it for a moment. "I'm either flipping or I have two live cards," he considered... and called!

Juanda: {A-Hearts} {2-Clubs}
Mercier: {Q-Spades} {J-Spades}

Flop: {10-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {7-Clubs}

Turn: {5-Clubs}

River: wait for it.... {J-Clubs}!

Jason Mercier doubles up to 1,072,000 and the chip lead, while John Juanda, who, remember, won the WSOPE main event just last week, is now the underdog with 649,000. As snoopy said, "That Juanda, he runs so bad..."
