Simon Levy opened in middle position and She Wong flat-called on the button before Daniel Williams three-bet jammed for 730,000 from the big blind. Levy re-shoved and Wong took a moment before folding what he later said was king-queen.

Daniel Williams: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Simon Levy: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

The flop landed {2-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} to give Williams the lead and he survived the flip and the board finished out {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} to double through Levy for the second time today.

"You're a flip god!" said Levy.

"I've never won two flips in my life," replied Williams. "And somehow I just won two against you."
