Sklenicka Takes From Silver Without Showdown

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante

Joining the action on the {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop, Michael Sklenicka checked out of the big blind and Max Silver bet 325,000, which the Czech called. After the {Q-Diamonds} turn, Sklenicka checked again and Silver made it 900,000 to go. Sklenicka called, immediately checking the {2-Clubs} on the river.

Silver fired a third barrel worth 2,100,000 and Sklenicka verified the bet size before tossing in a single chip for the call. Silver immediately mucked and forfeited a decent portion of his stack. "I thought you had it," Daniel Turner said.

"Thanks," Silver replied and Turner asked for his name. "I am Max," Silver replied, still smiling after just having lost almost half of his stack.
