Hats Off To Levi

Nicolas Levi opened to 1,000 from UTG+1 and it was passed around to Scott Montgomery in the big blind who checked his hand before making it 3,200. Levi wasn't too impressed with this though, he now 4-bet to 8,100 putting the heat back on the former Main Event finalist.

Montgomery then reraised again, making it 19,000 with just 39,000 behind. Hoyt Corkins got up out of his chair and whispered to us, "This is going to be a big one..."

After more dwelling Levi pushed his entire stack of orange 5k chips in the middle, making it 68,100 - in effect setting Montgomery all-in. This time, Montgomery tanked for around 30 seconds, recounted his stack and folded. Levi flipped just {Q-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} adding 20,000 to his stack without even a flop.
