Chalk up another one for Jason Mercier.
The $18 million man added $794,600 to his lofty career tally with a win in the 116-entry Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown $25,500 High Roller. It's the second win for Mercier in a $25K here at SHR, after he shipped one in August 2015 for $517,187.
"The field was pretty tough," the expecting father said to SHR staff. "The final table was nine pros, basically."
