Mercier Takes Katz to the Pound
Joe Tehan raised to 34,000 preflop, Jason Mercier flatted, and Cary Katz moved all in for 218,000. Tehan folded and Mercier made the call.
Katz: 
Mercier: 
It was another race situation and this time Mercier was ahead. The 
flop changed nothing and neither did the 
river. Katz needed to hit the last card to stay alive. The dealer burned and the river was the 
. Mercier's pocket fives held and Katz was eliminated from the NAPT Los Angeles.
