2014 World Series of Poker Asia-Pacific
We noticed 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Greg Merson was no longer seated at Table 33, and a quick check with Brandon Shack-Harris confirmed that he had been eliminated. In fact, Shack-Harris had done the deed and was kind enough to fill us in.
It actually happened toward the end of Level 9 when Merson raised to 2,000 and Shack-Harris three-bet to 5,000. Merson moved all in for roughly 25,000 and and Shack-Harris snap-called.
Shack-Harris: ![]()
Merson: ![]()
Merson received a little help when a king appeared on the flop, but he'd fail to catch a third. With that, Shack-Harris added Merson's stack to his own.

Players are now on another 15-minute break. When they return they'll play one more level before the 75-minute dinner break.
Within half an hour from 600 chips to 46,000. That's the story of Sam Cohen in a nutshell. After her previous two double ups, she reshoved for 16,000 with
and got called by
. On the
board she doubled up once again. Cohen then reshoved twice and showed pocket queens and pocket aces.
Last but not least, there was a raise to 2,000 and a call from the player on the button before Cohen moved all in from the big blind for 41,000. There was no call and she flashed
before heading into the break.
