Jason Mercier what has he done as of late? I guess those stupid bracelet bets from last year are karma.

^^ This, when Josh final tabled the Monster Stack.

As for Ivey, he's probably better off playing the cash games.. He's a cash game specialist, it would make more sense for him to play those then the high variance in a 5k where you have to beat a field of like 500 just to make 100k.(Final table)

You guys will see Durrrr, Ivey, Colman etc once 50k, and High Rollers start happening in couple weeks. I believe the 50k comes first.

Something something disappointment vs. expectation.

It was reasonably well-known that Ivey was arriving late. Durrrr and Patrik pretty much only play high-rollers if they play tourneys at all.

I saw that Tweet. When I Favorited it, he suddenly DM'd me to tell me nothing is available. Booked solid. No rentals, no sublets, not even a guest room or a cot. What gives?

Whatever happened to ben lamb from 2011 wsop? He cashed in numerous tournaments, final tabled main and was a world beater that year. Haven't heard from him sense. He seemed like a guy who would stick around for a long time.

Has Melissa Burr shown up? She ran well last year -- 5 cashes with 3 final tables.

It is hard to disappoint by not running hot in a tiny amount of tournaments.
It says nearly nothing about their respective skill levels.
