No Brotherly Love Lost Here

In the words of Adam Levy, "Yep, that’s real."

Brothers Adam and Justin Levy have been seated side-by-side all afternoon, but Justin just had a chance to send his brother packing.  The two got it all-in preflop with Adam holding [KsKc] to Justin’s [AdAs].

According to Adam, he actually thought about laying the cowboys down.  "I honestly wanted to fold when he three-bet me," the elder Levy explained.

Thankfully for Adam, things worked out in his favor as the board ran out [9h7c5c2d] … [Kd].  The two-outer on the river gave Adam the best hand and a double up.

While Justin did his best to take the whole thing in stride, Adam was the one who was shocked and, frankly, a little sheepish after the fact.  His guilt wasn’t helped by the various comments from friends and tablemates once they realized what happened:

"Hey Adam, that was the biggest s**t-eating grin I’ve ever seen after that river hit," joked Matt Stout.

Tiffany Michelle couldn’t resist chiming in from a few tables over as well.  "Wow Adam, I would hate to be a part of your family.  You really treat them like crap." 

As the 26,000 chip pot was pushed towards the elder Roothlus, he summed up the situation pretty well:

"[The hand] didn’t change anything.  I think he hated me more before."

Adam Levy – 26,000
Justin Levy – 4,400
