Louis Salter Eliminated in 9th Place ($22,842)

Jason Wheeler opens to 45,000 in the cutoff, Louis Salter moves all-in from the button, and Fredrik Andersson gets interested in the small blind. The chip leader asks the dealer for a count – it’s 393,000 – and he moves all-in. Wheeler folds and we have a showdown with Salter at risk of elimination.

“I’m in bad shape.” Says Salter.

Showdown

Andersson: Q Q
Salter: A 4

Board: Q 7 4 5 5

If Andersson was worried about the ace, it was dispelled after he hit a set on the flop. His hand improved to a full house by the river and Salter was out.
