Mike Watson Eliminated in 2nd Place ($93,495)
Jason Mercier open-shoved on the button and Mike Watson called all in for his final 2,250,000.
Mike Watson: 10x8x6x3x
Jason Mercier: 10x8x4x3x
Both players had a ten-eight draw and got their final card dealt. Watson revealed a Qx and Mercier looked down at the 5x.
"I win," Mercier cheered and went over to shake Watson's hand before celebrating with his rail. With the win, Mercier now finds himself in very selected company as a six-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner, seven years after his last victory.
Mike Watson, undoubtedly one of the best players yet to win the coveted prize, will have to wait for another time to finally cross it off his bucket list. He received $93,495 to add to his $20M+ in lifetime winnings for his accomplishment.
