The Levy Roller Coaster

Grant Levy's been on a roller coaster of a ride the past few hands. On the first hand, Levy was all in preflop with Emad Moaref. Levy held {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} and Moaref held {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}. Levy flopped a flush on the {7-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} board to eliminate Moaref from the tournament and move up to 18,500.

The very next hand, Levy was all in again preflop. This time his opponent held the {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} with Levy dominating with the {A-?} {K-?}. The board ran out {J-Clubs} {10-Spades} {4-Spades} {A-Clubs} {2-Hearts}, knocking Levy down to 4,700.

A couple hands later, Levy called off his last chips holding {7-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} after Michael 'Sticky' Guttman moved in from an earlier position. Guttman held {A-Clubs} {K-Spades}. The board ran out {9-Spades} {9-Clubs} {2-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} and just like that, Levy was back up to 10,000 chips. Guttman dropped to 13,000.
