Leverty Getting Shorter
Level 26
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
Matthew Leverty came into the final day as the tournament short stack and has struggled to get much going early in the first level. Jon Turner opened from the cutoff and was called by Leverty in the big blind.
Leverty took one to Turner's two on the first draw and then bet. Turner called to send action to the second draw where again Leverty took one and Turner two. As before, Leverty bet but Turner called once more.
The final draw saw both players take one card and then check to showdown. Turner tabled 8♦5♥3♦2♠ to take down the pot and leave Leverty with just five big bets.
