High Roller: Mercier Breaks It Open

$25,400 High Roller Event (Re-Entry)
Level 21: 20,000/40,000/5,000 Ante

Jason Mercier has taken a giant step toward winning our High Roller event.

O’Hara bet out 100,000 on the button getting a call from Mercier. Off an AsJs6h flop, Mercier checked and O’Hara bet 135,000.  Mercier then check-raised to 345,000 and O’Hara made the call.

The 2d hit the turn and Mercier checked.  O’Hara bet 435,000 and Mercier called.  After a 4d on the river, Mercier checked and O’Hara fired out 1.040 million and Mercier check-raised again to 2.75 million.

O’Hara went into the tank for a couple of minutes and finally made the call.  Mercier turned over 5s3s for a rivered straight and O’Hara mucked.  Mercier has now taken command of the tournament going to 7.27 million leaving O’Hara at 1.03 million.
