The French-Canadian Mercier

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Just before the break, Isabelle Mercier found some fightin' chips. There was about 25,000 in the pot already when we joined a {6-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {2-Hearts} flop. A player in middle position opened to 14,000, and Mercier three-bet shoved for 41,300 total. The bettor tanked for ages before calling with {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs}, and Mercier's {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} was well in front.

The turn {5-Spades} and river {3-Diamonds} kept the overpair safe for the lady, and she's doubled her way up to about 110,000.
