Poker has been on the tips of everyone’s tongues these days, and the success of Lady Gaga’s biggest hit has inspired other to use poker as a new theme in their music. Lady Gaga’s song Poker Face was an international hit and sold over 8 million albums. Now, Marcel Luske and Jason Mershon are jumping on the bandwagon.
Marcel Luske has release an album of songs centered around poker. Apparently Luske is quite talented and exhibited his new songs during the Doyal Bruson Five Diamond event in December. A few well known poker professionals attended the concert and later twittered about Luskse’s talent.
Jason Mershon has recently released a song called Playing for a Livin. To promote his song Mershon is offering 50% of any final table winnings at this years WSOP to the first 15,000 people who download and buy his song. He is planning on playing the Main Event, so this might be a pretty fantastic investment for his listeners if he actually makes it.
Although it might be a pretty good return on investment, Mershon doesn’t have the most impressive tournament stats around. According to PokerPages player database Mershon only has four tournament cashes since 2004 and every one of them are under $900. But who knows, he could be the next Darvin Moon.
“I wrote the song to humorously tell what it's really like being a professional poker player; the sarcastic attitudes of many professional poker players; and the monotony of actually playing poker for a living and grinding out the long hours in a casino card room,” stated Mershon.
