Mercier Doing Work

A player under the gun limped into the pot, and both Jason Mercier and Isaac Haxton followed suit from late position. The player in the small blind raised to 2,325, enough to fold the first limper. Mercier decided to make a reraise though, and now Haxton got out of the way. The small blind then moved all in, and Mercier made the call to put him at risk.

Showdown
Mercier: {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs}
Small blind: {10-?} {10-?}

Mercier flopped lucky, and the board ran out {7-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds}. With his sevens full, Mercier comes from behind to knock out another player, chipping him up to 88,000 as the break approaches.
