Level 10 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Jason Mercier check-called a bet of 25,000 from opponent Mikita Badziakouski on a {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Spades} flop. The turn was the {3-Hearts} and Mercier check-called another bet, this time for 100,000.

The river was the {j-Spades}. Mercier checked for a third time and Badziakouski used up one time bank before betting 225,000. Mercier counted out the chips and then agonized over the decision, using up a time bank, before calling.

Badziakouski muttered something in Mercier's direction, flipping up {q-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a missed flush draw. Mercier showed {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a pair of sixes and took down the pot.
