Silva Scares Wade
Level 20
: 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
After a raise from Corey Wade in early position, Jon Smitson announced "pot". Action came to Silva and he announced all in for 385,000. Wade thought about that hand for a moment, but finally folded.
Jon Smitson: 
Luiz Silva: 
The two players had almost similar hands, but a player on the table just said this before the dealer proposed a flop "Hey, do not forget he's Brazilian..."
The board came 
and Silva took three-quarters from his opponent. Wade mentioned that he had 2-3.
"My plan was to scare you away", said Silva, "and looked like it worked."
