Two Big Names Jump in Late

Five-time bracelet winner Jason Mercier has jumped into the field of play. He has joined the table of Erik Seidel, Todd Brunson, and Matt Glantz, making it even tougher than it already was. Mercier has over $4.5 million in WSOP cashes and numerous other championships from around the globe, giving him a total career live recorded earnings of over $18 million dollars.

Two-time bracelet winner and online super-pro Phil Galfond has taken a seat next to Shaun Deeb. Galfond has over $2.2 million in WSOP earnings and has transitioned from the online world that he dominated into the live setting rather well. Galfond is recognized as one of the most in-depth thinkers of the game and is the head of a popular online coaching and instructional site.
