After Dave Simon raised to 65,000 from middle position, Josh Shmerl re-raised all in on the button.

Action folded back around to Simon, he made the call and the players tabled their hands.

Simon: {10-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Shmerl: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

The {8-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop put Shmerl in the lead, but things changed on the {10-Hearts} turn.

The {a-Spades} river gave two Shmerl top two pair, which unfortunately wasn't good enough.

The dealer counted down the stacks, Shmerl had Simon slightly covered by 95,000.

Two hands later Shmerl went all in from the hijack, Keith Heine then re-shoved from the button and the blinds got out of the way.

Heine: {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Shmerl: {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The board ran out {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, eliminating Shmerl from the tournament.
