Silver on Almost Four Times the Starting Stack

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

Max Silver headed into the break and his stack was massive to say the least. The Brit and Nick Petrangelo confirmed what happened. Silver raised to 600 and picked up two callers including John Juanda on the button and Eric Sfez in the big blind called. On the {J-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-} flop, only Sfez called the bet of 1,200 by Silver before the {A-Spades} fell on the turn.

Sfez bet 1,700 and Silver raised to 5,500, Sfez then raised to 14,000 and Silver called. After the {Q-Clubs} river, Sfez check-called a bet of 25,000 and mucked {K-Spades}{9-Spades} while Silver showed pocket aces to drag in another big pot.

Table short stack is Oleh Korotkikh with fewer than one third of the starting stack.
