Silber Straightens Out Johnson

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

We caught the action on a {q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} flop with a short-stacked David Johnson having already got his last 16,000 in preflop. At that point, Pakinai Lisawad checked from the under-the-gun position and Shawn Silber bet 20,000. Lisawad folded and the cards were turned up.

Johnson: {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Silber: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

Silber flopped top pair with a gutshot straight draw, which was ahead of Johnson's pair of deuces and open-ended straight draw. The {J-Clubs} turn gave Silber his straight, which left Johnson in need of a king on the river just to chop. The dealer burned one last time and put out the {6-Clubs}, the last card Johnson would see before making his way to the payout desk in 22nd place to collect $8,435.
