David Names Pushes David Levi Out of a Chopped Pot

David Levi
David Levi
After a flop of {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, David Names checks, David Levi bets 80,000, Markus Gonsalves folds, Names raises to 225,000, and Levi goes into the tank. After several minutes of thinking, Levi folds {A-Spades}{K-Spades} face up, leaving himself with just 140,000.

Levi asks Names what he had, and he says, "I had a redraw." As the pot is pushed to Names, Levi continues the pressure, and Names relents, turning over {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} -- it would have been a chopped pot.
