Jason Mercier shows the world he is in the shape of his life. After taking down a bracelet and ending runner-up in the Razz Championship, he managed to win another bracelet. This time it was the $10K H.O.R.S.E. Championship, good for $422,874 and one step closer to winning three bracelets (and costing Vanessa Selbst a lot of money).
Jason Mercier started the final day, again, as chipleader. Below are the chipcounts at the start of the last day.

When Jason Mercier and James Obst reached the heads-up play, things seemed to go the wrong way for Mercier.
