Silva Chips Up by Busting Murphy
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Thomas Murphy open-raised to 20,000 from the hijack before Pablo Silva three-bet to 60,000 from the small blind. Murphy then jammed all in for 155,000 when the action was back on him, and Silva made the call with the covering stack.
Thomas Murphy: J♠J♥
Pablo Silva: K♦Q♦
Murphy flopped a set on 10♠A♦J♣, but Silva had the better hand with a straight. The board did not pair on the Q♠6♣ runout, meaning that Murphy was eliminated from the High Roller.
