"The Good News Is It's Still Rebuy"

Level 5 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

We're not sure how the action unfolded, but we do know that Talal Shakerchi, who if you recall finished as the Day 1 chip leader in the $100,000 Super High Roller only to fall short of a cash, got his stack all in preflop and was in great shape to double against Bill Perkins.

Perkins: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Shakerchi: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Shakerchi was looking to dodge a nine, but that proved easier said than done when the {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} flop delivered Perkins a full house. Neither the {3-Hearts} turn nor {5-Hearts} river was the ace Shakerchi was looking for, and he was eliminated from the tournament.

"The good news is it's still rebuy," Perkins offered.
