Mercier Doesn't Know Why

Former chip monster fallen on hard times Ian Munns raised under the gun and Barry Shulman called behind. In the big blind, newly doubled up Jason Mercier reraised. Munns gave it up but Shulman called, and they saw a flop.

Flop: {J-Hearts} {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}

Mercier checked and Shulman bet 30,000. Call.

Turn: {8-Hearts}

Mercier checked again, and this time Shulman moved all-in-really-really-fast, for 230,000. "I don't know why I called the flop," said Mercier with spectacular and admirable honesty. He folded, and is down to 240,000.
