Jason Mercier

Wed Jun 03 2009

Winner of Event 5 - $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha

Jason Mercier jumped out to a massive chip lead on Day 1 of this tournament and never had to look back. Buoyed by a rail full of friends, the 22-year old Floridian took down his first WSOP bracelet this afternoon, a shiny addition to a mantle that is already home to two EPT trophies. Congratulations to Jason Mercier, one of the good guys of poker, on his bracelet-winning performance!
