Up and Back Down For Lavesque

Eric Levesque opened to 1,600 in middle position, and he was called by only the big blind. Heads up, the flop came out {A-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}, and Levesque continued out with another 1,600. His opponent check-called, and the {J-Hearts} landed on the turn. It went check-check there, and the big blind checked again when the {9-Hearts} completed a few potential draws on the river. Levesque went ahead and flicked out 6,000 more chips, and his opponent tanked and called.

Levesque knew his {A-Hearts} {6-Clubs} was unlikely to be good, and indeed, the small blind's {8-Diamonds} {8-Spades} was easily good enough to win the pot.

Levesque must have done some good work since we last wrote about him just a couple minutes ago, but this last pot erases those efforts and knocks him right back down to about 7,800.
