Peter Alba ripped his last 10,400 in from middle position, and Frank Cerminara called next to act. Mike Shanahan made the call in the small blind, leaving himself just 1,200 behind.

Shanahan committed those last 1,200 chips after the {10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop, and Cerminara called.

Peter Alba: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Frank Cerminara: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Mike Shanahan: {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Shanahan's pair of fives was ahead, and he held on the {j-Diamonds} turn and {10-Hearts} river to eliminate Alba and essentially triple up.
