From the cutoff seat, Najim Yahyaouy raised to 800. Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier called from the big blind, and the flop came down {Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Mercier checked, and Yahyaouy bet 1,500. Mercier called.

After the {7-Spades} fell on the turn, both Mercier and Yahyaouy checked to see the {9-Clubs} fall on the river. Mercier led out with a bet of 3,100, and Yahyaouy quickly called.

Mercier showed a straight with the {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, but Yahyaouy held a higher straight with the {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and he won the pot.

Mercier was knocked back to 12,600 in chips.
