Big Stax 500 (Day 3): 7th Place - Ingram ($10,988)

Level 29 (Blinds 50,000/100,000/10,000)
Players Remaining: 6
Chip Average: 6,200,000

James Ingram (Trenton, NJ)
No matter how deep the tournament plays, or how many blinds each player has, this scenario plays out the same at any final table.  There were multiple bets pre-flop before James Ingram was all-in and at risk against Craig Bateman:

Ingram: K♠ K♣
Bateman: A♠ A

Runout: 9♣ A♣ K 5 Q

It was a pretty tough spot for Ingram, who stood up and collected his things without saying a word.  Players at the table commended him on his quality play throughout the day, and he thanked them before heading to the tournament podium.  The pot was worth well over 6,000,000, making Bateman the chip leader with 13,000,000.
