Jason Mercier First For Portrait (So Can Get On With Stacking Chips)

Mmm, fake money, tastes just like real money
Mmm, fake money, tastes just like real money
Each player has taken their turn in front of a camera, and a gigantic pile of very realistic-looking fake money. It gets its own velvet-covered side table and probably features in the background of as many shots as possible. Mercier started unpacking and stacking his chips before everyone else, and appears to still be doing so after they've all finished. Must be nice.

The players are finally in position, and we expect the start any moment... expect some top class poker from some experienced, relaxed players who are ready to fight for the £800k top prize and the super-presigious bit of WSOPE jewellery.
