Mercier Staying Active
Nível 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Team PokerStars Pros Jason Mercier has been staying very, very active at the table today. In fact, every time we look he's involved in a hand. He began the day with over 130,000 in chips, but began losing chips and sank as low as 80,000. Now, he's back over 140,000, even despite losing this last pot to Matias Chincuini.
Mercier and Chincuini saw the flop come down 
. Mercier checked, Chincuini bet 5,500, and Mercier called. Then, the 
was added to the board on the turn, and Mercier checked. Chincuini fired 8,500, and Mercier folded.

2004 Aussie Millions Champ Eliminated
Nível 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
"All in and a call Table 32," we heard a dealer yell. We made our way over just in time to discover 2004 Aussie Millions winner Tony Bloom was all in for 50,000 or so holding the 
on a 
flop. His opponent held the 
for two pair, which meant Bloom needed to hit a heart to keep his hopes of winning the title for a second time alive.
Bloom was on his feet to watch the dealer burn and turned the 
. It was a blank for Bloom. He had one more crack at it, but lady luck did not favor him as the 
peeled off on the river.
Bloom made a pair of aces, but it wasn't enough. "Nice hand," he said before collecting his things and taking his leave from the 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event. While he may be gone in this tournament, we expect we'll see Bloom in the $100,000 Challenge a couple days from now.

Hachem Stuck in Reverse
Nível 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
It's been a rough start to Day 2 for Australian poker legend and 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Joe Hachem.
Straight out of the gate he tweeted the following:
Start play of day 2 @aussiemillions Lost 16k pot KK v1010... Back to the grind still have 34k, plenty of timeFollow @JosephHachem
There may be plenty of time, but Hachem has done nothing but dwindled since. Most recently he called a river bet of 7,000 on a board reading 
only to muck when his opponent rolled over the

Grigg Crowns King Dan in th' Knickers an' Nicks His Crown!
Nível 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Full Tilt Poker Ambassador Tom Grigg opened for 1,800 only to have "King" Dan Smith, who won the $100,000 Challenge here two years back, three-bet to 4,600. Not to be outdone, Grigg four-bet to 10,200 and then called when Smith five-bet all in for roughly 40,000.
Grigg:
Smith: 
It was a classic race, and according to the PokerNews Odds Calculator Smith was a slight 56.65% favorite while Grigg would score the elimination 42.95% of the time.
The 
flop was safe for Smith, and he pulled out to a 3-1 lead. Unfortunately for him, that is when the dealer burned and turned the 
. Grigg paired his ace to become a massive 95.45% favorite, which meant Smith needed to catch a jack and a jack only to survive. He had a 4.55% chance of doing it, but in this particular hand it didn't come as the 
blanked on the river.

Maggs Sent to the Rail
Nível 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Arthur Maggs got his stack of 19,000 or so all in preflop and was in bad shape against Carmelo Frazzetto.
Maggs:
Frazzetto:
Maggs was in need of some help, but he found none on the 
flop. The turn was actually a great card as Maggs picked up a flush draw, but it did him little good as the blanked on the river.
