$25,500 High Roller No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 9: 1,200/2,400 with a 400 ante
Total Entries: 79

The field has grown to 79 entries as Level 9 begins.

Entry #79 was Jason Mercier, and it’s not the first time he’s been seated with a starting stack of 100,000 this evening. As he arrived to his new table, Bryn Kenney inquired about that very thing.

“How many entries is this for you?” he asked.

Mercier held up five fingers in reply. “I hope this is the last one,” he said. “Or else I’m going to be the one begging for money.”

It’s likely Mercier is embellishing a bit, but this entry is at least his second into this High Roller. He’s the defending champion of this event, and he starts 42 big blinds as he takes a seat once again.
