Kostritsyn Forces Mercier to Fold

Mercier: {X-}{X-}/{K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs}/{X-}
Kostritsyn: {X-}{X-}/{4-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}/{X-}
Greenstein: {X-}{X-}/{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

Alex Kostritsyn was the bring in with the {4-Clubs}. Barry Greenstein completed with the {10-Diamonds}, but Jason Mercier raised with the {K-Clubs}. Both Kostritsyn and Greenstein called Mercier down until sixth street when Kostritsyn's board paired. He checked, as did Greenstein. Mercier bet, but saw Kostritsyn put in a raise. Greenstein got out of the way, watching Mercier check seventh street. Kostritsyn bet, sending Mercier into the tank for a good two minutes before he folded.
