Mercier Gets Value from Ace-High
Level 9
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Jason Mercier limped the small blind, Antoine Saout isolated to 60,000 from the big blind, and Mercier called.
On the K♣J♠4♦ flop, Mercier check-called a 55,000 bet from Saout.
The K♥ turn checked through to the 2♥ river, which saw Mercier lead for 40,000. Saout thought it over for around a minute before he flicked in the call. Mercier tabled A♣3♥ for just ace-high which was good as he scooped the pot.
