Dan Shak Eliminated

From the button, Dan Shak made a raise to 650. The small blind reraised to 1300, which was enough to put Shak all in. Shak made the call holding {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. The small blind held {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}.

Shak's opponent spiked a pair of nines on a flop of {J-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. The turn and river came {2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, providing no help to Shak and sending him home for the day.
