Silver Nears the 1,000,000-Chip Stack

Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nate Silver opened to 10,000 from early position and Javier Fernandez shoved all in from the hijack for around 110,000. When the action got back to Silver, he made the call.
Javier Fernandez: A?K?
Nate Silver: 8?8?
Fernandez needed to connect with the board if he wanted to stay alive but the 2?3?J?7?9? runout offered little help and he was eliminated.
