Shak slammed the table when he saw the situation.

“Ace-jack?” asked Shak.

“Wanted to see the flop,” said Mercier.

That pot gives Mercier more than half of the chips in play, as Shak was second in chips when play resumed. With that, Day 1 action has concluded.

Jason Mercier – 2,635,000 (132 bb)
Dan Shak – Eliminated on the Money Bubble

A recap of the day will be posted later tonight.
