Silvestri Gets Some Back at Emmons' Expense

Level 21 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Mario Silvestri

Allie Prescott opened to 18,000 from the button, but that's as far as he'd go. From the small blind, David Emmons three-bet to about 120,000, leaving himself just 20,000 or so in back. Mario Silvestri proceeded to reraise all in from the big, folding Prescott and getting Emmons to commit himself to what would be his final hand.

Showdown
Emmons: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}
Silvestri: {A-Clubs} {J-Hearts}

Emmons' best hand would go unrewarded as the {A-Spades} appeared on the flop with a quickness. The board ended up showing {A-Spades} {K-Spades} {8-Clubs} {4-Spades} {2-Clubs}, and Emmons will have to settle for 23rd-place money here today.

Silvestri is back up to about 480,000 after earning that knockout.
