Levy Gets A Life

Grant Levy is freerolling after surviving a sick cooler situation.

Preflop Levy with {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} opened from under the gun and two players called. The flop came {8-?}{6-?}{6-?} and the opponent in the blinds checked to Levy who fired out a bet.

Both of his opponents decided to stay on for the {8-?} turn, which all three players checked.

The river was a {k-?} and the player in the blinds bet 2,000. Levy flat called looking to induce a bluff from the last player to act. The late position opponent also flat called, which turned about to be a pleasant twist of fate for Levy.

The player in the blinds tabled {6-?}{6-?} for quad sixes, which would have certainly sent Levy to the rail had he been able to check-raise all in.

He moves up to about 15,000.
