Johnson Shoves, Salsberg Tanks to Hawkins' Reshove

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Charles Johnson moved all in for 900,000 from middle position before Maurice Hawkins reshoved on the button. Matt Salsberg in the big blind tanked for several minutes as he considered the decision for his last 850,000. The clock was eventually called and Salsberg folded, claiming to have ace-king.

Charles Johnson: A?J?
Maurice Hawkins: A?K?

"I figured you had ace-king," Johnson told Hawkins heading to the 10?A?8? flop, which gave both players top pair but Hawkins remained in the lead with his king-kicker. The board ran out 4?5? and Johnson was eliminated.

Johnson accidentally stepped on the water bottle of tablemate Jan-Peter Jachtmann as he prepared to make his exit, spilling water all over the table.

"Water bomb," the good-natured Johnson said as he and Hawkins exchanged a fist bump.
