Throwback Thursday: Doug Polk Feuds with Jason Mercier
In the past year, Jason Mercier and Doug Polk have both cut back their hours on the poker table. Mercier, a former PokerStars pro, semi-retired last year just after the birth of his first son. With his recent announcement of baby boy #2, it doesn't look like Mercier will be back to a full-time poker schedule any time soon.
Polk too has made his presence scarce at the poker table. The popular YouTuber also announced his semi-retirement last year. Instead of poker, Polk announced he was shifting his attention to cryptocurrency and current events.
However, today we focus on the Mercier/Polk glory days. This week's Throwback Thursday features a video from the summer of 2016. What was the comment Polk made that started a tense Twitter feud with Mercier? Why did Mercier almost refuse to do an interview with Sarah Herring? Which legendary poker player got in the middle of the feud? Watch to find out!
