Hand #63: Desilva raised to 265,000 from the hijack, and Liberto three-bet for an amount large enough to force Desilva all-in if he elected to call. With 
in the hole, the young Desilva did just that for about 2.1 million, and he found himself as a major favorite against the 
of Liberto. In the last hand before break, Desilva watched as the dealer delivered his fate.
Flop: 
With middle set on the flop, and his opponent holding no spades, Desilva was in great shape to score the double. Liberto would have to catch a ten, but the odds were stacked squarely against him.
Turn: 
Now Desilva was searching for tens or fives to complete a miraculous straight to send Desilva packing.
River: 
With that, Liberto exhaled in joy and turned to his supporters on the rail, who were already celebrating his good fortune. Desilva, meanwhile, absorbed his bad beat like a professional, offering congratulations to Liberto and wishing his former tablemates well as he departed the main stage.
