Isle Open Championship (Day 3): Scott Levitt Eliminated In 7th Place ($17,971)

2017 Isle Open | Event #21
$1,500 No Limit Hold'em Isle Open Championship| $500,000 GTD
Level 27 (Blinds 30,000/60,000/10,000)
Total Event #21 Entries: 404
Event #21 Players Remaining: 6


Scott Levitt (Delray Beach, FL) continues to pad his 2017 stats, which happen to be the best of his career.

Just a handful of hands after doubling up, Scott Levitt would try to duplicate the feat against the same player (Paul Balzano).  After Paul opened the action with a raise to 130,000, Scott three-bet just for just under 700,000.  Balzano was clearly on the fence about his decision, but ended up making the call, and tabling J♥ 10♦.  Levitt looked displeased, and the reason why was clear, as his 10♠ 9♠ was dominated.  The Q♥ J♣ 5♠ flop gave Levitt some more outs to win, and after making a pair on the turn (9♥), he would head to the river with ten outs.  Unfortunately for Levitt, none of those out appeared on the river, and he would be eliminated in seventh place.
