Mercier Claims Most of Perry's Stack

Level 2

Pot-Limit Omaha

We came upon a huge PLO hand brewing between Jason Mercier and Ralph Perry. They'd reached a {5-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop and there was already a big pot developed with Perry having fired a bet into it. Mercier had raised all in with his entire stack, and after tanking quite some time Perry decided to call, thus building a total pot of more than 300,000.

Mercier had {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Spades} for top two pair while Perry had {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for aces. The turn was the {4-Hearts} and river the {J-Clubs}, and Mercier had suddenly scored a big double as they near the end of Level 2. Meanwhile, Perry will be going to the dinner break with less than 30,000.
