Nicolas Levi Eliminated in 5th Place (��208,119)

Nicolas Levi - 5th Place
Nicolas Levi - 5th Place

Hand #124: Ronald Lee raised to 105,000. Nicolas Levi began staring him down from the button and then moved all in. Fabrizio Baldassari was in the small blind and asked for a count. He was informed that the all-in bet was for 990,000. Baldassari tanked and then folded, as did everyone else including Lee and Levi won the pot.

Hand #125: Levi raised to 135,000 from the cutoff seat. Lee put Levi all in from the big blind, applying maximum pressure. Levi tanked and at one point it looked like he asked for a count on Lee's stack who had him well covered. Levi must have wanted to see how much of his stack Lee was risking on putting Levi all in. Levi then tanked a bit more while sipping on his water. He eventually called and held the best hand when the cards were turned over.

Levi: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Lee: {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The flop came down {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Lee picked up a ton more outs with a flush draw. He was still behind though to Levi's nines.

The turn brought the {K-Clubs} and that put Levi in a big hole facing elimination. He now could only catch the the {9-Spades} on the river. The river was the {10-Spades} though and that did it, Levi was out in fifth place.
