Patrick Silvey Eliminated in 5th Place ($15,677)

Patrick Silvey
Patrick Silvey

Hand #114

Patrick Silvey open shoved for about 150,000 and was called by Arthur Vea in the blinds.

Silvey: {A-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Vea: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The flop fell {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} giving Vea a set of eights, but Silvey held the only diamond.

Silvey and his rail must be tired, because when the {A-Spades} turned they all thought he was ahead. The {10-Spades} was dealt on the river and finally Silvey realized Vea flopped a set.

What Silvey can be sure of is that he’ll receive $15,677 for his 5th place finish when he visits the cage here at the Rio.
