Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
There have been some chip changes over on table 141 as Pakinai Lisawad stormed ahead of Krasimir Yankov. Another showdown unfolded when two players with middling stacks got it in and Rick Salomon was at risk but barely covered by Aaron Katz.
Rick Salomon: A♠10♠10♦3♥
Aaron Katz:A♥A♣Q♣8♣
The board ran out 9♥5♠2♥6♥9♦ and the aces held to knock out Salomon.
Some table chatter broke out and Katz said "he can afford it" while talking with the others and Keith Lehr one table over.
"He is the biggest winner in poker ... he plays against a billionaire every day," Katz added when referring to Salomon.
