Mark Rebuck woke up with AK.

Andy Hwang reraised to 1.1 million after Michael Tauman opened for 400,000 under the gun. From the big blind, Mark Rebuck pushed all in for about 2.1 million, and Tauman folded. Hwang seemed resigned to making a call he clearly wasn't happy about.

Hwang: {a-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Rebuck: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

It was for good reason, since Rebuck had him dominated. Hwang never threatened to come from behind, as the board came down {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts}{9-Spades}{10-Diamonds}. Hwang now about 1.8 million, while Rebuck's around 5 million.
