Jason Mercier finished second at the EPT 11 Barcelona High Roller event, taking home a cool €473,500.

The eventual winner was Ihar Soika from Belarus who took home €747,200.

The event had a total of 393 entries and became the biggest High Roller in the history of the EPT.

PokerNews.com interviewed Mercier immediately after his 2nd place finish and he seemed content with not winning.  €473,500 might do that to a person.
