Keep an eye on Jason Mercier

(Jason Mercier just won WSOP Event 5, $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha.)

Dang. Before the WSOP I put "treysfull21" (Mr. Mercier) as one of the top 3 players left out of the Full Tilt (WSOP Fantasy) contest (along with Elky and Amnon). ChipItUp over at PokerNews is also having a fantasy contest, where you choose a 20-player team for the duration; I made "treysfull21" my number one player, as you rank your team. Unfortunately, the CIU contest (with a much boader player list than FTilt) doesn't officially start until WSOP Event 10. Pooh. Oh well, Jason will just have to win another bracelet ... or two. Congratulations, sir!!! Folks, keep an eye on this young super-duperstar; he may be the WSOP MVP this year!
