Niveau 1
: 25/50, 0 ante
The action folded to the player on the button who opened for 150, both the small blind player and Thomas Boivin made the call from the big.
The flop fell 
and after two checks, the button player continued for 300. The small blind folded and Boivin raised it to 800. The button quickly called and the two remaining players checked on the turn 
and river 
. Boivin mucked his hand after his opponent turned over 
for a pair of kings.
