From under the gun, Jason Mercier raised to 64,000. Rainer Kempe called out of the small blind, and Bryn Kenney called from the big blind. On the {K-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop, action checked to Mercier. he bet 72,000, Kempe called, and Kenney folded.

The turn was the {J-Hearts}, and both Kempe and Mercier checked to see the {9-Clubs} land on the river. Both players checked again, and Kempe tabled the {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} to win the pot with a pair of jacks.

On the next hand, Fedor Holz, who was playing his first hand at this table since being moved after the last hand, opened with a raise to 70,000 from under the gun. Mercier called from the big blind, and the flop was {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Mercier checked, Holz bet 90,000, and Mercier called.

The turn was the {5-Spades}, and Mercier checked. Holz upped his bet to 255,000, and Mercier made the call. The {4-Clubs} river was then checked by both players.

Holz showed {A-}{J-} for a pair of aces and that beat Mercier's {Q-}{J-}.
