Mercier Doubles Through Wolff
Level 15
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jason Mercier had called a raise to 30,000 while on the button and George Wolff then raised the pot in the big blind to force out the initial raiser. Mercier elected to call with 191,000 behind and the flop brought 
.
Wolff moved all-in and Mercier eventually called it off for what he had behind.
"I was bluffing," Wolff joked and rolled over the 
for the top set while Mercier had outs with the 
for a flush draw and back door straight outs. Nothing changed on the 
turn but the 
river improved Mercier to a flush.
At nearly the same time, defending champion Jeremy Ausmus and Anthony Zinno were eliminated on neighbouring tables.
