Action folded to Rick Salomon on the button, and he raised to 125,000. In the small blind, Daniel Cates reraised all in for 1.475 million. Salomon made the call with the {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and would attempt to send the man they call "Jungleman" to the rail. Cates held the {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}.

"Ahhh, f***," mumbled Cates when he saw the bad news.

The board came {A-Spades}{8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}, and Cates was eliminated. Salomon moved to 6.5 million in chips.
