Update 1 for Event 53, Day 2 2 years ago

Isabelle's World

Isabelle Mercier is always fun to watch; and she's good at poker, too. She got a little frustrated when she bet down the Js 7c 2h 5d 3h board to find two callers. On the river she bet, then called one raiser who showed Ac 2c for a flopped pair of ducks.

She quickly shook off her irritation; and on a board of Qc Tc 8d Kd, Mercier bet from the button; then called a raise from the big blind. The 5d river brought a check-call from Mercier.

The big blind showed a pair of ladies for the flopped set; but the flop had hit Isabelle's Jh 9h even harder. Her straight took the pot and sent her up past the $72,000 mark.

Terrence Tanked

Isabelle Mercier will have to carry a little more of the Canadian content now that Terrence Chan has busted out. Chan was all-in holding J-9 to an opponent's Q-8, only to find a board of A-8-7-5-Q make his caller two pair. Chan earns $6,634 for 41st place.
