In today’s Daily 3-Bet we’ll take a look at the fallout from Jason Mercier’s victory last night, Neymar getting a WSOP seat and a packed GPL schedule.
1) Poker Pros Sweat Mercier Win
Jason Mercier might single-handedly break the poker economy.
OK, it’s probably not that bad but Mercier’s victory last night cost Fedor Holz and others some serious cash.
Of course Mercier’s big bet against Vanessa Selbst is still live at 180-1 on Mercier’s $10,000 on winning three bracelets.
“One down… two to go,” as Mercier put it on Twitter.
Holz said the bet he lost against Mercier last night was his single-biggest loss on record, which seems astounding.
Of course Selbst also has that massive bet against Dzmitry Urbanovich to think about and the Polish pro just made Day 2 of the $10k Razz.
Here's a look at some of the reaction from some of the people that took bets against Mercier.
Congrats @JasonMercier. Fun sweat. If anyone wants to lay me a price that he won't win 2 more (I bet he WILL), accepting offers :)
