We all see how Jason plays on wsop 2016, his game seems to be amazing and poker community treats him like one of the best tournament poker players in the world.

He has been one of the best in the world for the last 5+ years. Consistently ranked in top ten, if not top 5. Has been ranked as high as #1 before this year.

Jason Mercier is a great MTT player that seems to constantly be on a heater :D

Tried to bluff Ivey during a broadcasted cash game and got caught. End result was he had to leave the cash game with no reload lol...

Jason Mercier is an animal, a complete grinding machine . His durability to keep going from tournament to tournament whether it be online or live I think helps keep up his competitive balance.

With the way he's been playing and the results he's amassed over the last several months he's without question one of the top players in the world right now.

Sucks that he had such a bad run in the WPT Alpha 8 with AA before his win.

That's one of his best traits is "putting it together" and making important decisions when put to the test. To fold KK on a board that *seems* mundane, no ace, is crazy. Then to turn around and call off a showdown with KJo that missed just "knowing" it is good.

The major difference I see on TV between he and Daniel is that they both put it together (Daniel out loud) but then Jason goes with his instinct and does what he thinks is right. Daniel will still call plenty of times after calling out exactly what the guy has him beat with. (Although in fairness, Daniel seems to be improving in this regard)

This guy is a machine. Like yourself we have seen him make loads n loads of Ace High calls. The man is the ultimate poker player as for when it comes to the tournament level of holdem. As for hi cash games. Well i've seen him kinda not getting the same buzz as tournament poker. Be Lucky Guys.

LMAO. You guys on this site are so funny. Challenge still stands. Show me a hand replayer of a better play that you've made at ANY level. That will never happen. Perhaps someone on here once made a hero call for a whopping $0.20 pot or something. But considering what was at stake here... COME ON.
