Levi-tation
Nicolas Levi is out of his seat, out the door and out of the EPT Grand Final. As the blinds went up, a preflop monster pot was created by what looked like four big hands. There was an early-position 1,500 lying across the line, and a mid-position raise to 5,100. The cutoff (an as yet unidentified Spanish player, chewing what looked like one of those plastic coffee stirrers) then moved all-in, for just under the 30,000 starting stack.
Then Nicolas Levi called all in (25,000).
Then the 1,500 bettor started to work through his timebank! This hand had exploded out of the starting gates and had created the biggest pot so far today, and it was with a headshake that this gent finally released his hand. The re-popper folded much faster, and the two all-in players flipped their hands up:
Levi:
Coffee-Stirrer Gentleman:
The board brought the outdraw: and when the queen came on the flop it also brought a noise like, "Oh-ah-eee!" from the outdrawer. Levi just stood up and said, "That's that," walking calmly off.
