: 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
With a pile of about 125,000 chips in the middle and the board reading 
, Eric Hicks bet 100,000 from the big blind into his lone opponent, Max Silver, who was under the gun. After a bit of consideration, Silver called.
The 
fell on the river and Hicks checked. Silver shoved for 110,000, sending Hicks into the tank for several minutes. After asking the dealer to verify the bet and talking through his decision briefly, he folded, and Silver took the substantial pot to become one of the top stacks.
