Levi Loves the Action

Nicolas Levi has been creating plenty of action on a table directly in front of our blogging crew here in the Amazon Room. In a hand just following the break, he was able to eliminate a player when his {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades} held against a short-stacked opponent's {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}.

Shortly after, Levi was at it again, calling down three streets of betting in a big pot on a board of {8-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. His opponent flipped {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for top two pair which was good to collect a healthy pot, leaving Levi back on around 16,000 in chips.
