Ciocan Flips Mercini to the Rail
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Catalin-Iulian Ciocan raised to 4,000 from early position before Patricio Mercini stuck in his last 42,500 from the big blind. Ciocan tanked for a moment before calling.
Patricio Mercini: A?K?
Catalin-Iulian Ciocan: 10?10?
Mercini was flipping against Ciocan's pocket pair but found no reprieve on the 9?9?2?8? board. He was already standing up from his seat preparing to make his exit by the time the dealer turned over the 3? river, cementing his elimination.
"You're killing these guys," tablemate Viet Vo told Ciocan following the hand.
