Max Silver has just knocked out Ronan Gilligan to win UKIPT Dublin 2010

In a dramatic end to this years UKIPT Dublin Max Silver has taken the title!


Ronan Gilligan put up a brave fight but in the end his words rang true "I have to go some time"


Ronan had raised on the button to 120,000 to see an instant ship from Silver in the BB.


Ronan thought long and hard about the call and finally made it with his remaining 18 blinds.


Ronan flips up A5d to stare in horror at Silvers QQ.


No amount of cheering from the Gilligan squad could summon the Ace from space and when the board ran out 8s 6c 2s Kc Jc it put an end to Gilligan's tournament and sent him home with €42,000.


English born Max Silver takes the €72,000 1st place prize money and UKIPT Dublin title home.


Well Done Max!


It's been a hectic weekend here at the Burlington so with the day coming to an end it's time for me to hit the road!
