EPT Monte Carlo: Day 1B Coverage Index

Posted: Mar 18th 2006 by Devendra

There has been a tremendous amount of interest in the $10,000 Sit and Go that stretched into the early morning hours. Here was my final dispatch of the morning.

Just before 4:30am, 2005 WSOP Champion Joe Hachem got heads up with online stalwart MrSmokey1 in the richest Sit&Go in EPT history, a record $10,000 per player. In the the first of the two biggest hands of heads up play, MrSmokey1 got his money in with AT versus Hachem's KQ. A queen on the river doubled Hachem up. Ultimately, MrSmokey1 picked the wrong time to make a move and pushed in his stack with 62o. Hachem looked down to see pocket aces. The bullets held up and Hachem took home the lion's share of the money. While the exact financial terms are between the players, it appeared to be a 70/30 split, which is to say, neither man walked away without some thick wads in his pocket. As I type, they are all going out for breakfast together...Hachem is buying.

Mercier Struggling under the weight of bad luck

From this angle, you just can't tell how bad a day Isabelle Mercier is having. Here, she looks poised to crush the table. She looks like she could be ready to rip the throat from anyone who dares look at her chips. In fact, it has not been a good day for No Mercy. The cards have fell mercilessly. Despite an abundance of confidence, Mercier is having no luck in the early stages of the tournament.
