He also recently finshed 11th at WPT Choctaw for $50,466. All together, De Silva is having a career year with over $700,000 in live tournament earnings.

In one recent hand, De Silva placed a bet of 6,250 on the board of {6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}. Dean Bobel called, and the turn was the {10-Hearts}. De Silva fired again, this time for 9,250, and Bobel took his time before he decided to raise to 16,500. De Silva didn't make a quick decisions, but eventually folded, and Bobel won the pot.
