Shak's Ladies Knock Out Ausmus
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action folded to Dan Shak who raised to 12,000 from the hijack, which was called by Stephen Song in the cutoff. The button folded and Jeremy Ausmus three-bet all in for his stack of 125,000. Shak then four-bet all in which got Song to quickly fold, leaving the players heads up, with Ausmus at risk.
Jeremy Ausmus: A?4? 
Dan Shak: Q?Q?
Ausmus would need help to stay in the tournament, after running into the pocket queens of Shak. The 4?2?J? flop gave Ausmus extra outs. But the 2? on the turn, and 9? on the river were no help for Ausmus, and the pocket queens of Shak took the pot and sent out Ausmus, with only three hands left in Day 1.
