Event #60: $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw

We haven’t seen him much at the WSOP since 2018, but it looks like the skills are still there for Jason Mercier, who won $151,276 and his sixth bracelet! He’s now 15th in the bracelet race, right behind John Hennigan and ahead of TJ Cloutier. Mercier is also ranked 39th in all time money list with more than $20M.

Mercier defeated Mike Watson, who’s unfortunately also seen this story happen already: “I’ve been three-handed with him four separate times in major events and I’ve won all four.”, said Mercier. “So he’s gotten second twice and third twice. But in particular, we played heads up for the no-limit deuce bracelet in the $10K in 2016. So it was definitely a bit of déja vu.”
