Phil Laak and Jason Mercier Shine At Shooting Star

Laak breaks out his special WPT poker goggles.

While everyone may think that Phil Laak and Antonio Esfandiari are true BFF’s some forget that Laak is also has quite a history with the oft-emo Jason Mercier (seen here actually smiling!). In fact, the duo not only tangled in one of the most memorable hands ever in the NBC Head-Up Poker Championship…

...but also Laak paid Mercier 1k back in 2011 for the privilege of being able to know some pretty intimate stuff about Jason.

The pair enter day two of the Shooting Star with their bounty in tact.
