Natasha Mercier Gets There on the River

Level 5 : 300/600, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em:

Natasha Mercier raised under the gun. It folded to Greg Raymer in the big blind.

"Is that one bet behind?" he politely inquired, and Mercier confirmed. Raymer raised, and Mercier called all in.

Mercier: {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Raymer: {9-Spades}{6-Spades}

"I'm amazed I have two overs!" said Raymer, as the flop came {q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. The turn brought the {a-Spades} giving Raymer a flush draw and causing Mercier to get to her feet.

"Good luck, guys," she said, but no sooner than she said it, the {4-Diamonds} appeared on the river, giving her trips to double up.

"I thought she only had one out but then realized she already had the {4-Spades}," said Raymer, "She jinxed the shit out of me!"
