Mattia Scores Huge Double Up Against Levy

Eliyahu Levy opened to 25,000 from early position and was called by the player directly behind him and the button. Gianluca Mattia then three-bet to 120,000 from the big blind and Levy called. Everyone else got out of the way.

The flop came {4-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Mattia check-called a 100,000 bet from Levy.

The turn brought the {K-Clubs} and Mattia again checked - prompting an all in bet from Levy for nearly 600,000. Mattia fell deep into the tank and thought his decision over for about five whole minutes. He eventually announced, "Call," for his remaining stack and Levy turned up {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} for pocket sixes. Mattia triumphantly tabled {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} for a turned pair of kings. The river bricked for Levy and Mattia scooped the massive pot.

Mattia is sitting on 1.1 million, while Levy slipped to 350,000.
