"He's Playing Great, Too"
Shawn Buchanan has been making his rounds through the $3,000 HORSE field and gathering players for a last-longer bet. Jason Mercier and Christopher Vitch are not involved but were jokingly petitioning to get in.
"I got a lot of chips now, Shawn. Can I get in?" asked Vitch.
Buchanan responded with what was likely a no.
"I didn't have a bunch of chips then," Vitch offered an explanation to why he didn't join earlier.
"You can have both of us," Mercier chimed in, sitting with about 7,000.
"Yeah, you can have a big stack and a short stack," Vitch said.
While this discussion was going on, the table was playing a Stud 8-or-Better hand.
Mercier's door card was the 
. He looked around the table. "All these low cards, I'm gonna raise."
"He's playing great, too!' Vitch called out to Buchanan as another reason they should be added to the bet.
Mercier eventually won the high hand with aces up and split the pot with Bruno Fitoussi, adding a little bit more to his stack.
