Levin Puts Gervais To the Test
Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
There was around 17,000 in the pot on a board reading 
and Joshua Gervais had a bet of 13,000 out in front of him from the big blind. Action was on Matthew Levin, who was on the button and in the tank.
After close to a minute of thought, Levin slid forward a tall stack of T1,000 and T5,000 chips and announced he was all in. Gervais then thought for over a minute himself about the decision that Levin had just put him to for his remaining chips. Ultimately, he decided it wasn't worth it and sent his cards to the muck.
