Mercier Maintains Lead

[user25067]

Jason Mercier limped in on the button and Steven Burkholder checked his option. The flop was {6-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} and Burkholder check-called Mercier's 32,000 bet. Both players checked the {2-Clubs} on the turn. The river was the {9-Clubs} and Burkholder check-called another 90,000 from Mercier.

Mercier turned up {A-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts} for the wheel and Burkholder mucked. Mercier now has a nearly 2-1 chip lead with 2,372,000 to Burkholder's 1,270,000.
