Cruel Cooler Ends Silver's Run

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Nate Silver

Henry Chan raised to 250,000 from the hijack and was called by both Nate Silver in the cutoff and big blind Tony Dunst.

The flop came 6?7?2? and action checked to Silver, who bet 330,000. Dunst folded 5?5?, but Chan raised to 1,400,000. Silver then reraised all in for 5,165,000 and Chan snap-called, having Silver barely covered.

Nate Silver: 6?6?
Henry Chan: 7?7?

The FiveThirtyEight founder and pollster understood the sheer improbability of the cooler he had just run into as Chan showed him a higher set.

Silver shot back in his chair as the board ran out Q?3?, sending him to the rail in brutal fashion.
