Double or Nothing For Salem

Nicolas Salem was all in preflop for about 14,000 holding {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}. Tony Eid was in there as the would-be eliminator, but his {K-Spades} {Q-Hearts} was in a dominated position.

The board ran out safe for the at-risk Salem, coming {5-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {2-Spades} {9-Diamonds}. With his pair of nines, ace kicker, Nicolas Salem picks up an early double of his own, sitting just shy of 30,000 now.
