James Salmon (Davie, FL)

The last we saw James Salmon (Davie, FL), is was on Day 3 of the 2017 Battles At The Beaches $1,500 Championship Event.  Salmon ended up busting in 13th place, collecting $6,182 for his efforts.  James has been pretty busy since that day, following up that series with a trip to Panama, for the PokerStars Panama Championship series.  He would record to cashes during the trip, including a final table finish in the $5,300 No Limit Hold'em Main Event (7th place - $48,520).  James then returned to Florida...went overseas to Monte Carlo (another PokerStars series)...and then ended up in Vegas for the WSOP.

Salmon finished up his five month voyage with a deep run in the WSOP $10,000 Main Event, finishing in 142nd place, and earning the second largest score of his career ($53,247).  Every has now come full circle, as Salmon is back at the Isle Poker Room, looking to add to his career earnings of $579,380.  Also joining James in the field for the first time this tournament, are names like:

Chad Bliss
John Magnetta
Edward Jaffy
