Jared Bleznick opened the hijack to 18,000 and Jason Mercier called in the cutoff. On the button, Nacho Barbero potted to 81,000 and both opponents called.
On the K♠7♥5♠ flop, Bleznick led for 10,000. Mercier went deep in the tank with 12,000 behind and opted to call. Barbero then potted, Bleznick called all in for 135,000, and Mercier put in his last 2,000.
Jason Mercier: J♣J♥4♠4♦ 
Jared Bleznick: 10♥9♣8♠8♥
Nacho Barbero: A♠A♣9♥5♣
Surprisingly, Barbero's aces were still in front while Bleznick had a gutshot. However, the 4♥ landed on the turn and Mercier made a set to take the lead. Mercier filled up on the 5♦ river and Bleznick hit the rail with Barbero winning the side pot.
"How do I not win there?" questioned Bleznick. "Any six and you guys are dead."
"You have a gutshot, bro," replied Barbero.
