Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Thomas Laviano - 15th Place
Thomas Laviano - 15th Place

As told to us by Robert McVeigh, Thomas Laviano opened from the hijack and McVeigh called from the small blind.

The flop came down {K-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and both checked to see the {2-Spades} turn. McVeigh bet 80,000, Laviano popped it to 300,000, and McVeigh called. The {A-Spades} landed on the river and McVeigh checked to Laviano who shoved for 1.39 million.

McVeigh called with {9-Spades}{8-Spades} for a flush. Laviano's bluff with queen high came up short, ending his run in 15th place.
