Mike Dentale opened to 1,200 in early position, and there were two callers behind him. From the cutoff, Eli Levy three-bet to 4,800, and only Dentale called to see the flop.

It came QdQs9s. When Dentale checked, Levy moved all in for 10,825. The bet sent Dentale deep into the tank, eventually apologizing for the delay. “I’m sorry, guys. Just give me, like, 60 seconds.” After about that much time, he called to put Levy at risk.

Dentale: 3s3d (pair of treys)
Levy: AsAd (pair of aces)

The turn 7c and river Td were blanks, and Levy doubled up.

“Are you going to write that I paid him off?” Dentale asked the reporter, offering a fist bump.

Eli Levy – 34,600 (69 bb)
Mike Dentale – 55,000 (110 bb)
