Mercier on the Move

Jason Mercier raised to 6,700 in late position, and the button paid to see a {j-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop. Mercier checked, and the other player checked behind. Mercier checked again when the turn brought the {4-Diamonds}. His opponent bet 10,000, and Mercier called. He check-called 15,000 when the river fell the {8-Clubs}. The button tabled {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}, but Mercier had outflopped him with {j-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. The hand moved Mercier up to 245,000.
