Mercer Wields the Ladies

Heather Sue Mercer hasn't had many chips all day, but when she picked up queens, she found herself in the position to eliminate a player with even fewer. He was all in with {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, and she called with {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}. The {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop didn't help her opponent, and he was drawing dead with the {j-Spades} on the turn. ESPN's cameras crowded around, and one of the other players dropped a few f-bombs in the background. "There goes your tv time," someone said to Mercer's victim. He tried to salvage it, however, with a handshake and a smile for Mercer. After his graceful exit, Mercer is up to 42,000.
