Silver, who's been playing poker professional for about eight years and who also owns and operates an online training site, was fortunate to close out this final with such speed. The early finish allowed him to make a midnight flight back to his current home in Dublin, Ireland, though he'll be returning for big events in a few days. "Ill be back to play the $25K PLO... and, of course, the Main Event.
