Mercier Busts on First Bullet

Level 5 : 400/800, 0 ante

Two short stacks clashed and it was Jason Mercier that ended up all in and at risk against Edward Hatzakortzian.

Jason Mercier: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Edward Hatzakortzian: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

The {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop was a sweat for Mercier with the open-ended straight draw, however, the {A-Hearts} turn and {A-Clubs} river both bricked off. "Chop it up?" Mercier joked and promised to be back soon for the second bullet.
