Following a victory in the €25,000 High Roller here in Monaco last night for €775,400, Steven Silverman has opted to play the €100,000 Super High Roller in hopes of "running the gauntlet." Silverman was in on the High Roller for a mere €3,000 satellite.

On this hand, Silverman was involved on the board of {8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Hearts} against Viktor Blom. Blom had checked, and Silverman fired a hefty 82,500. Blom tanked for a couple minutes, then called. Silverman showed the {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for ace high, but Blom's {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} proved best and he won the pot.
