ESPN2 will air the two-hour conclusion of the World Series of Poker Europe on Sunday, Feb. 28, at 9 p.m. From a field of 334, just nine players remain, and legends and amateurs have come and gone. The final nine is headlined by Daniel Negreanu, as well as James Akenhead and Antoine Saout — members of the 2009 November Nine in Las Vegas. Perhaps the biggest story is 23-year-old Florida pro Jason Mercier, who owned Day 4 and brought a quarter of the chips to the final table.
In the final hour, only four players remain in contention for the coveted bracelet and nearly $1.3 million prize. The action will begin with the fairly even chip stacks, but from the start, it’s clear that two players have brought their “A” game when it matters most.
