Kursevich Straightens Out Mercier
We're not sure of the preflop action, but we do know that Vadzim Kursevich ended up all in for 112,000 with and was in dire straits against the of Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier.
The flop gave Kursevich a gut-shot straight draw, meaning he was looking for either a five or seven to take the lead. Wouldn't you know it, the spiked on the turn to give him a guaranteed double. Mercier knew he was drawing dead and took to Twitter even before the meaningless was put out on the river.
