Day Two of the $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop Tournament is seeing plenty of double ups and eliminations. Here's a look at some of the action.
Dan Shak just busted in a massive pot in which Brian Rast woke up with pocket kings once again.
Rast had put 425,000 on top of Dan Shak's initial raise when we arrived on the scene. Shak moved all in for just under four-million chips and Rast made the call.
Dan Shak showed 
and was trailing Rast's 
.
The board ran out 
, and Shak was eliminated.
After Shak left the table we overheard him say the following.
"He can only call with a very big hand there, he has to fold a lot of hands," Shak said as he was very disappointed with being eliminated from the tournament.
