Jason Mercier and his shifty eyes annoy me. The guy might be a great tournament player but he seems out of his element, I hope he gets stacked.

This season has been pretty boring so far. I've enjoyed the FTP Durrrr Million $ Challenge more.

Spoilers for Ep4: Did anyone else think of Isabelle Mercier in the Gus vs Dario hand?

****SPOILERS****
The whole episode was a lot better than the previous four but yeah that last hand was insane. How sick would that have been if he called? Durr has some serious balls.

I can't believe he tanked for that long. Just shows how insanely aware he is of what is going on.
Ivey is the closest to xray vision you can have at the poker table

I also thought he was going to call... when he does the crafty live-pro thing and asks Durrr how much he has left, dwan's voice wavers a bit and he sounds pretty nervous. After that I really thought ivey would talk himself into calling. But so so few players can squeeze-bet-bet-bet on a total bluff on a broadway board.
It's kind of like the (in)famous brad booth hand where he jams like 400k with a gutshot, it's just not a spot where almost anyone can reasonably bluff given the strength Ivey had shown (IIRC Ivey cold-4-bet OOP preflop), which is of course what makes it an awesome bluff.

Pretty sure the fact that it was televised didn't influence his decision at all. He could care less what peeps think. Not true. Why do you think Booth's 4high bluff worked? Brad said himself that part of it was that he knew Phil didn't want his image negatively impacted by making a bad call in a televised game.
