Action folded to Simon Lam in the small blind who shoved all in. Damian Salas instantly called off his stack of 297,000 in the big blind.

Lam: {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}
Salas: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}

Lam was in a deep hole from the start but connected on the {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop. Salas stood up from his chair and said some things in Spanish as the dealer burned and turned the {6-Spades}.

Salas was still ahead, but the {J-Spades} landed on the river to change all that. Salas' aces were cracked and he slammed his chair in disgust on the way out.
