Silver Sends Almeida Packing
Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Renato Almeida raised to 25,000 from UTG+1 and action folded all of the way around to start-of-day chip leader Max Silver in the small blind. He popped it up to 66,000 and it came back to Almeida who four-bet shipped all in for 310,000. Silver called and the hands were revealed.
Almeida showed 
but needed to improve against Silver's 
. The dealer produced a board that read 
, failing to improve Almeida's hand and eliminating him from play.
Silver raked in the chips and now has about 1.77 million to his name.
