The action folded to a short-stacked Ole Schemion, who open-shoved for 57,000 on the button. Dan Smith called out of the small blind, and the action was on Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier in the big blind.
"All in," he said with a furrowed brow.
Smith shot up out of his chair to examine Mercier's stack, but the Team Pro didn't move his hands to allow Smith to examine his chips.
"I have you covered," he said simply.
"Congratulations on that," Smith returned, picking his cards up and dumping them in the muck.
Mercier: 
Schemion: 
Mercier's hand held up as the flop, turn, and river came 
, and Schemion hit the rail in 10th place.
The remaining nine players will redraw to a final table, where one player will walk away empty-handed.
