He just tweeted this. I wonder if it was a straight up beating or robbery.

Jason Mercier
.@Samtrickett1 been there before brother. Sorry to hear that happened #justbadluck obv
Sorry to hear that but everyone knows soccer players can't fight.
It must have been 6 handicapped midgets if they didnt hurt him anymore than that.
I would take a beating like that every day for a month if it meant I would win 10 mil.
Fucking wanker needs to get toughened up.
DirtyB gets loads on his face everyday for free...rofl
Yeah that was him. He got it a lot worse than Trickett.
This is a good story of Jason's big run up that I posted before:

Wow, how fucked up is that? What a bunch of dicks.
So if Mercier won that San Remo seat from Stars, and he didn't really know anyone in poker yet, he must have had 100 %, (or close to it) himself that 1st million dollar win. Right?
Nice bankroll boost that must have been.
I'm pretty sure Mercier has 100% of himself 90% of the time. Guy had so many sponsorships he was getting paid to just show up. He also stakes like a zillion people. One of his horses took down an event early in the WSOP. I believe he had 50% of the guy which would have been about 300k if I remember correctly.
i guarantee that trickets gf was the cause of this
Any idea where this occurred? Does he know why? Was it about money, or did they just want to beat him up?
I could see it being about money because he just won $10 million, so perhaps they thought he was carrying a lot on him and it was a mugging.
But I'm wondering where this happened. Did he get attacked in the Rio? Outside of it? Perhaps in a club, celebrating his $10 million win at the One Drop?
Obviously, the Billionaire's in the One Drop $1 million buy-in tourney finally saw the ESPN video broadcast and saw Sam Trickett re-raising hands like 8 3 offsuit and K 3.
After see that, they ordered a hit team to beat the shit out of the bastard.
If you're ever at a poker table and Sam Trickett re-raises you, just move all-in, he usually doesn't have shit.
Apparently, Phil Hellmuth was also spotted leaving the club at the same time.

Apparently, Sam was beaten up just outside the nightclub 1Oak at the Mirage.Thugs beat poker champ
Professional poker player Sam Trickett was attacked and beaten up hours after a wild Champagne-fueled celebration following his $10 million win in the Big Drop for One Drop poker tournament in Las Vegas. Trickett came in second in the mega-tournament, which had a $1 million buy-in. After the final hand was played Tuesday night, the British soccer enthusiast turned poker shark celebrated at 1Oak at the Mirage with Big Drop winner Antonio Esfandiari, who took home $18.3 million. The two spent more than $10,000 on 20 bottles of Dom Perignon Luminous for their table, and then were still able to judge the July Fourth-inspired “America the Beautiful” lingerie contest at the nightclub. But when they left the hot spot at about 3:30 a.m., Trickett and his girlfriend, Natasha Sandhu, were attacked by six unidentified men. The following day, Trickett posted on Twitter: “Was having a great day until 6 guys did this to me . . . Couldn’t be more angry.” It’s unclear why Trickett was targeted. Sandhu tweeted, “It wasn’t a mugging or anything just over nothing, Sam is fine.”
Spending $10K for 20 bottles of Dom Perignon is not very baller.
Remember a few years ago at the former Wynn nightclub Blush?

Esfandiari and crew drank 26 bottles of Cristal for nearly $35k (including at $6k tip), and Bryant and crew put down 15 bottles for $21k.
