Jason Mercier Proposes To Girlfriend Natasha Barbour After She Finishes Third In World Series Of Poker TournamentBarbour Doesn't End Mercier's Run-Good In 2016 |
|
This week’s $5,000 buy-in no-limit hold’em event at the World Series of Poker featured Floridian Natasha Barbour going for her first career bracelet. She ended up being eliminated in third for $348,374, but what happened next was almost surely more memorable than the score.
According to the WSOP, Jason Mercier, Barbour’s boyfriend, had decided it was a good time to pop the question. Mercier got on stage, dropped down to one knee, and asked Barbour if she would marry him. Mercier’s run-good this summer didn’t come to an end, as Barbour said ‘yes.’
Prior to the proposal, Mercier’s summer had already consisted of two bracelets and a runner-up finish. He’s also won undisclosed amounts in large bracelets bets.
Oh, and he has cashed an incredible 10 times as well.
With her most recent final table, Barbour passed the $1-million mark in live tournament earnings. She finished second in a bracelet event last year.
