Levi Extends His Lead
With just three hands remaining, Thomas Bichon opened from UTG+2 for 1,250, only for chip leader Nicolas Levi to three-bet to 3,000 from the button. Bichon made the call.
The Frenchman and former WPT winner then check-called bets of 2,500 and 5,500 on the flop and turn, before check-folding to a final bet of 11,500 on the river, albeit after a lengthy pause.
As a result, Levi extends his lead and has become the first player to surpass the 150,000 mark.
