Steven Silverman

Action folded to Andy Seth in the small blind and he called before Steven Silverman raised to 72,000 from the big blind. Seth called.

The flop came down {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and both players checked to see the {3-Hearts} fall on the turn. Seth bet 60,000 and Silverman called.

After the {5-Spades} put trips on the board on the river, Seth checked and Silverman bet 200,000. Seth went into the tank for a couple of minutes. He sat down and thought for two minutes, stood up for another minute, sat back down for another minute and then finally called.

Silverman turned over the {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{J-Spades}{4-Hearts} for a full house, fives full of aces. Seth mucked his hand.
