Lehavot Stays Comfortably Stacked

Niveau 36 : 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Amir Lehavot, the sole prior bracelet winner to make the final table, is playing a comfortable upper-middling stack, even as the blinds approach their next elevation. He added a few million to it in a heads up hand against Samuel Gagnon, who opened under the gun for 1,000,000, called by Lehavot and the big blind. Lehavot alone called when Gagnon bet 1,400,000 on the flop. Both players checked the turn, but on the river, Lehavot bet 2,500,000 when it was checked to him, scooping the pot.
