Dan Shak raised preflop under the gun and the button reraised all in. The big blind called and then Shak reraised all in as well. The big blind called Shak’s shove too and the three players flipped over their cards.
Big Blind: 
Shak: 
Button: 
Board: 
Shak and the button were eliminated on the hand. Shak will most likely be back to fire another bullet.

Level 8 comes to an end, and Level 9 begins with increased blinds of 300-600 and a 75 ante. Play continues without a break.
The tournament clock shows 626 entrants in the Day 1A field, and registration remains open until the end of the dinner break (about 8:00 pm). Players who bust may re-enter as many times as they’d like until registration closes on each of the three starting days.
I’m in Florida playing the 10 mil guarantee at the hard rock. Along with everyone else in the poker world

Matt Brady was all-in from late position on a short stack with a flop reading 
. The button called and the two players flipped over their cards.
Brady: 
Button: 
Turn and River:
Brady was eliminated on the hand but he will most likely re-enter in one of the subsequent starting flights to get another shot at that $10 million guaranteed prize pool.
There was just a massive three-way all-in situation at Table 7 that crowned a new chipleader in the field.
An unknown player raises from middle position, Thomas Laviano calls from the hijack, and Barry Hutter moves all in from the cutoff for about 10,000. The original raiser calls, and Laviano moves all in over the top. The original raiser calls, and they turn over their cards.
Here they are, in descending order of chip counts:
Thomas Laviano: 
Middle-Position Player: 
Barry Hutter: 
The board comes 
, and Laviano wins the pot with an ace-high diamond flush to eliminate both players and catapult into the chip lead with more than 150,000.
Thomas Laviano – 155,000 (310 bb)
Barry Hutter – Eliminated
Retired or not retired there’s no way I’m missing out on a $10,000,000 guarantee that might overlay 7 figures, on my way to @SHRThePokerRoom

Just a few days ago, Jon Aguiar sent the tweet above about coming out of his poker retirement. Turns out Aguiar wasn’t kidding as he has once again hit the felt.
A WSOP bracelet winner, Aguiar decided to step away from poker to work on his new project, Draft Kings. Now based out of Boston, Aguiar has been dedicating all of his time to his new venture. However, the allure of a $10 million prize pool drew Aguiar to South Florida.
Aguiar has taken his seat on Day 1A of the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open $10 Million Guaranteed Main Event. Retirement has been good to Aguiar so far, as he currently sits on 53,000 in chips.
