Thomas Doubles Through Levine

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

On the first hand back from the dinner break, Travell Thomas secured a huge double up to catapult him towards the top of the leader board. We were only able to jot down the hands after the fact, but Thomas held {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} on a flop of {8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. Lanny Levine had {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}, and was in dire straits going to the turn. He was drawing dead when the {9-Clubs} hit, and the meaningless river was the {6-Hearts}.

Levine dropped to 103,000 after that hand, while Thomas jumped up to 245,000.
