Roothlus Wants to See it Again

We caught up to the action to find Gavin Smith and Adam Levy playing a pot together. On a {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{8-Hearts} board Levy bet out 650. Smith made the call and both players got to see the {6-Spades} on the turn. Both players then checked and it was a river {5-Hearts} that brought zero action as both players checked again.

Smith flipped over {7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a straight and Levy showed {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for a pair of jacks. As the dealer started to straighten out all the cards Levy yelled "wait! wait!!" thinking he somehow had the best hand and was getting scooped. The dealer along with the other players assured Levy that he indeed owned the losing hand. Players laughed and Levy playfully admitted his fault.
