McCarrel Doubles Through Mercier

There was an early position limper before Jamie McCarrel raised to 3,200 just a few seats to the players left. The action folded towards Jason Mercier seated in the dead button and he asked for a count. After receiving the information Mercier wanted, he raised to 6,000, the limper folded, McCarrel moved all-in and Mercier called.

McCarrel{A-Diamonds} {A-Hearts}
Mercier{A-Clubs} {K-Spades}

Board: {K-Spades} {8-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}

So Mercier had a bit of hope on the flop but it then petered out on the turn. McCarrel now has 25,000 and Mercier is down to 31,000.
