Nicolas Levelled

Levi - Still looking for airport hat-thief
Levi - Still looking for airport hat-thief
Nicolas Levi, having survived his first table move with just under 4,000, had dropped to a push-or-pass level, when he was finally looked up with his stack all in the middle: He held {5-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} , against the caller's {A-Hearts} {J-Spades} .

"I can beat that," he said, with deadpan optimism. The flop came {Q-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {7-Hearts} , the turn the {Q-Spades} and the river a decisive {A-Spades} sending him to the rail with a "Good luck, all," for the rest of the players on his table.

Pictured with standard hat and staredown, his brief flirtation with playing bare-headed in Barcelona appears to have ended.
