Emerson Ward's Kings Defeat David Levi's Aces

Feb 9, 2015

David Levi raises under the gun to 100,000, and Emerson Ward calls from the big blind.

Both players check to the river on a board of KspadeQdiamond4spadeJdiamond3club, Ward bets 250,000, and Levi calls with AdiamondAclub for an overpair. But Ward turns over KheartKclub to win the pot with a set of kings.

Yes, David Levi had pocket aces with fewer than 20 big blinds and managed to escape with minimal damage.

Emerson Ward  –  2,000,000  (66 bb)
David Levi  –  280,000  (9 bb)
