James Salmon (Davie, FL) had gotten a few all-ins through, but even though he held a strong hand on his final shove, he'd be up against the pocket aces of Ray Nalbandian.

James Salmon (Davie, FL) was left as the shortest stack at the final table, but he was able to get three all-ins through, chipping up to ten big blinds.  The fourth time he shoved, Ray Nalabandian re-shoved behind (having Salmon covered), will players behind folding around.  "Do you have a pair," Salmon asked Nalbandian, with Ray answering by turning over A♦ A♣.  Salmon then tabled his 9♥ 9♣, and would need some help from the runout.  The board ran out 2♦ 4♠ 7♥ 6♠ K♣, and James would be eliminated from the final table in sixth place ($10,480).
