Hi-Ho Silver, And Away
From early position, Mike McDonald opened to 11,000, and Max Silver three-bet shoved for about 55,000. McDonald quickly called, and Silver knew the news was likely not going to be good.
Showdown
McDonald:

Silver:

When the dealer burned and turned the first three cards, the
was right in the door. As it turned out, though, the flop was a very sweaty
. McDonald had picked up a flush draw, and he added another three outs when the
paired the board on the turn. He needed any ten, queen, ace, or diamond to earn the knockout.
River: 
That qualifies, and it sends Silver off to the payout desk for his check.
