Buchanan Doubles Up
![[user169806]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
It appeared that Jason Mercier had his fellow countryman Shawn Buchanan backed into a corner but the latter has just doubled up by running like Mericer usually does.
Buchanan raised to 12,000, Mercier three-bet to 40,000 and then instantly called when Buchanan moved all in on him for a total of 180,000.

The dealer put out the 
flop onto the table, gifting Buchanan a straight and when the 
landed on the turn Mercier held his cards over the muck. The meaningless 
was our river card and Buchanan doubled up and took a commanding lead in the match and Mercier threw his cards into the muck.
