Kanaan Wins a Huge One

By the time we arrived at Michael Kanaan's table, there was already a {j-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Spades}{a-Clubs}{q-} board out on the felt, with Laurynas Levinskas and Kanaan deeply involved in a large pot. At this point there was well over 20,000 already in the middle and Levinskas slowly tapped the table, sending the action to Kanaan. After a few moments of thought, Kanaan tumbled his remaining 20,200 in chips out onto the table.

Levinskas thought long and hard before saying, "call."

"Straight," Kanaan said as he tabled {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.

Levinskas turned over {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} and sent a huge portion of his stack to Kanaan, who now sits with the largest stack in the room.
