EPT champions event and only 50,000 euros worth of first prize maybe they could have increased the prizepool, and with only 4 places paid from 48 people must have been very aggressive tournament. anyways congrats to Jason

Jason Mercier is a sick man. A really sick man. He is so good tournament player! I think that he is the best tournament player in the world. Even better than Ivey. Congratulations to Jason and good luck to you.
