Post by: TightEnd on June 13, 2016, 12:05:10 PM
the first funk of the series and we have two to cheer

Event #16: $10,000 2-7 Draw Lowball Championship (No-Limit)

Jason Mercier leads

in 3rd is Stephen Chidwick

Stephen "stevie444" has become know as one of the most accomplished all round discipline players each year at the WSOP

This is his 11th WSOP final table, highest finish is 2nd

in 4th is Benny Glaser, from Southampton.

Benny won a bracelet last year, the $1500 low ball event

good luck to them both

Play resumes at 10pm UK time, one more elimination and they redraw for the official FT and go on the live stream

2-7 NL is a pretty good game for the rail, Stevie especially would be a very popular winner

gl to both

Mercier has huge bracelet bets on, and in particular vs Stevie. Think Fedor backed Stevie vs Mercier with Mercier at $110k for $100k per bracelet, so this is a huge swing for Jason and Fedor.

Which reports are these?

Seems like high six figures is what most ppl have said and that checks out with what he said in his interview straight after the win where he said it was his biggest win since 2008 (San Remo usd1.3m)
