Levi Snaps, Levi Binks

When we arrived at Table 12, Nicolas Levi was all in and at risk against two players moments ago, and the cards looked like this:

Levi{a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Opponent 1{k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Opponent 2{j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

The {q-Spades} appeared in the window of the flop, and upon seeing it, Opponent 1 announced, "There she is!"

Unfortunately for him, the {j-Spades} followed, and fortunately for Levi, the {5-Spades} was the third card. The dealer rapped the table, and just as he delivered the turn card, Levi snapped his fingers. The turn was the {4-Spades}, giving him an ace-high flush.

Levi wasn't safe yet however - if the board paired, Opponent 2 would win the pot. The {10-Hearts} was a brick however, and Levi nearly tripled back to starting stack.
