Mercier Scooped in Back-to-Back Pots

Jason Mercier is non too happy.
Jason Mercier is non too happy.

Bricking and getting scooped is pretty tilting, but just ask Jason Mercier how it feels to be scooped in consecutive hands.

In the first, he and David Steicke got three bets in preflop. The flop fell {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, Steicke led out, and Mercier called. Steicke put his last bet in after the {4-Clubs} turned, Mercier insta-called, and the hands were opened.

Steicke: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Mercier: {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Mercier was open-ended with a flush draw, but the {2-Diamonds} on the river was a big, red, brick.

The very next hand, Mercier opened from early position, and Alessio Isaia re-raised from the small blind. Mercier called. Isaia led after the dealer fanned {8-Spades}{6-Spades}{a-Diamonds}, Mercier raised, and Isaia called. Isaia slowed down, check-calling after the {6-Diamonds} turned, and both players checked after the {3-Clubs} was dealt on the river.

Mercier sighed as he tabled {a-Spades}{3-Spades}{4-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for a lowly pair of aces and an eight-six low, and Isaia tabled {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{k-Clubs} for a better pair of aces and the nut-low. The dealer was having a hard time reading the hands however, and sat idle for a moment or two.

"As soon as you figure this out, you can take my money," Mercier sighed. "I appreciate you trying to give some back though."

Back to back scoops have Mercier hurting, he's down to 82,000 chips.
