Levy Slips in the Backdoor

The button had just folded and Grant Levy, in the big blind, said, "so, you're gonna let us play now?" pertaining to the fact that the button has been raising his blind quite often. The small blind then raised to 300 and Levy called.

The flop came {K-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} and it was checked to Levy, who checked as well.

The turn was the {A-Clubs} and this time the small blind led for 400. Levy made the call.

The river was the {3-Clubs} and an amount of 1,000 was bet into Levy. Levy thought for a moment before making the call. His opponent seemed confident when he turned over pocket kings for flopped top set. Levy turned up the {9-Clubs} {2-Clubs} though, and a look of disgust struck his opponent's face.

Levy's backdoor flush has put him over the 26,000 chip mark.
