For the longest time on Monday, it looked as if Matt Perrins was a 2-7 Draw Lowball prodigy - dominating final table play and capturing his first WSOP bracelet along the way.

Perrins' performance was impressive indeed - the fact that he had tremendous competion made it even more awesome.

Amongst the defeated, Jason Mercier picked up his fourth PTPR Score of the season with his 7th place finish in this event. Mercier sits only a few points behind in the PTPR Tournament Player of the Year rankings.
