Silcock Doubles Through Torrisi

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Rickie Silcock
Rickie Silcock

The board read {4-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades} with over 90,000 in the middle already.

Rickie Silcock shoved for 89,000 from the cutoff and Illuminato Torrisi was considering his options from the button. In the end, he made the call with {j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for the pair of jacks. Silcock turned over {k-Hearts}{j-Spades} for the same pair of jacks but with the higher kicker.

The river completed the board with the {2-Clubs} for Silcock to stay ahead and double up.

This wasn't the case for Abz Lad and Martin Kilchenmann as they were eliminated to take the field down to 156 players remaining.
