Finkelstein Eliminated, Hand-for-Hand Play Begins

David Finkelstein called a raised from Jason Mercier, who was on the button, and the dealer fanned {9-Spades}{6-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Finkelstein quickly moved all in, and Mercier instantly called.

Finkelstein{a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}
Mercier{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

Mercier's two pair was ahead of Finkselstein's, and the {2-Diamonds} on the turn changed nothing. The {7-Diamonds} on the river gave Mercier a full house, and Finkelstein was eliminated.

"Good game," Mercier offered.

With Finkelstein's elimination, we are now on the bubble and will enter hand-for-hand play.
