Kenneth Taffaro (Mooresville, NC)

Kenneth Taffaro (Mooresville, NC) was one of the shorter stack at Table 39, and he would push his remaining chips in from middle position.  The action would fold around to John Campbell in the blind, and he would make the call:

Taffaro: A♠ 9♠    
Campbell: A♥ 10♦

Flop: J♠ 2♠ 7♦
Turn: 6♥
River: 7♣

Taffaro would be well behind going in, but he would get a big flop for his hand.  Kenneth was not able to find any spades or a nine to make a pair, and he would be the first to leave the field since the redraw.  With that pot, Campbell would chip up to 820,000, one of the larger stacks remaining.
