Mercier Hits the Rail
Level 14
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Action folded to the small blind Eric Yanovsky who raised to put the big blind Jason Mercier all-in for his stack of 365,000, which he quickly called.
Jason Mercier: Q♠10♠ 
Eric Yanovsky: A♥2♥
It was a fair fight but Yanovsky was ahead with his ace-high. The board ran out A♠7♠8♦3♥8♣ and Mercier's flopped flush draw bricked out, giving Yanovsky the pot with his pair of aces and knocking out Mercier.
Mercier left the table and said "0 for 12" and wished the table good luck.
