Mercier Gone

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

In a three-way hand, Jason Mercier bet the rest of his chips on a {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} flop. The next player to act, Rob Shortway, made the call and a player in the blinds folded.

Mercier: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{6-Spades}
Shortway: {j-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Hearts}

Mercier began walking away from the table immediately and after the {a-Diamonds} turn he stopped for a quick second before sprinting when the {4-Hearts} hit the river.

Shortway is nearing the six-figure mark with that pot.
