From Poker Dealer to MSPT Qualifier
When he woke up this morning, Erik Silgman wasn't sure if he was going to play in the MSPT Main Event. It was his day off as a poker dealer at Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin Dells, another MSPT stop, so he decided to travel to Milwaukee and play this morning's $250 qualifier. Much to his delight, he was able to qualify.
Unfortunately, Silgman hasn't had as much luck in this tournament; in fact, he was just down to 3,350 when he shoved all in from the hijack and received a call from the player on the button.

Button: 
Silgman was ahead, but his opponent was drawing to two live cards. The 
flop was kind to Silgman, but the 
turn was dangerous. It may have given him two pair, but it also gave the button a flush draw. The dealer burned one last time and put out another 
. Silgman filled up and kept his tournament hopes alive.
