Mercier Putting Up A Fight
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,500 ante
As expected, Jason Mercier is using the short stack to his advantage and just picked up a nice pot from Chris Bjorin.
From late position, Bjorin raised to 12,000 and Mercier, on the button, moved all in for around 90,000. Bjorin did think about it but eventually folded, giving Mercier the pot and moving him up to about 130,000. With the blinds and antes as high as they are, every pot is important at this point, especially for the short stacks.
