who is Heather Sue Mercer banging? she played in the $25k WSOP tourney as well as this, and its unlikely for someone like her to have the personal wealth to play that tourney unless they bagged some rich dude to stump up.

My guess is Dan Shaks new piece

Edit: apparently a mistake
Had to double check this because it's so likely to happen. Anytime he picks up the 10 4 it could be go time.

Shak Pulls a Rabbit Out of a Hat Against Esfandiari


We picked up the action on the flop of . The two players involved were Antonio Esfandiari and Dan Shak. It looked as though Esfandiari raised preflop and Shak defended with a call from the big blind.

On the flop, Shak checked to Esfandiari and he fired 4,800. Shak then put in a check-raise to 18,000 and Esfandiari tanked. He counted his stack a couple of times and thought for a minute or two before moving all in. He had about 137,000 in his stack and Shak called with a stack of about 134,000 total. When the hands were revealed, Shak didn't like what he saw.

Esfandiari:

Shak:

Shak's diamond draw wasn't looking good at all against the bigger flush draw for Esfandiari. The turn then brought the which did give Shak a couple more outs with a straight draw now, but it still wasn't looking good. That was, until the river.

Esfandiari and Shak both awaited the river and then with a bang, the dealer slapped the on fifth street! Shak had spiked one of his pair outs to win the hand and delivered a crushing blow to Esfandiari, who just sat there unable to really say anything. He let the dealer do the counting of his chips while in shock as he was left with just about 2,400. Shak was all in on the flop for exactly 134,100 after the final count.

Looking around the table, everyone was busy picking their jaws up off the floor after what they just saw. Shak is now up to about 280,000 after needing some magic of his own on that one.

My guess is Dan Shaks new piece
She won $2 Mill in a lawsuit against Duke University:
