Sharon Levin Wants the World to Know He Won With King High

Sharon Levin (center), who made the last two WPT Final Tables in the state of Florida, stopped by the media desk to excitedly describe a hand where he won a pot with king high to bust a player.

According to Levin, he raised from the button to 1,100, and the big blind called. The flop came J-10-3, the big blind checked, Levin bet 2,300, and the big blind check-raised to 8,000. Levin called.

The turn card was a 4, and the big blind moved all in for about 11,000. Levin called with K-Q for an open-ended straight draw, and his opponent turned over 6-5 for a lower open-ended straight draw.

The river card paired the board with the 3, and Levin won the pot with his king high to eliminate the big blind.

As Levin is telling the story, Danny Shiff stands up from his table nearby and says, "Sharon, nobody gives a shit." Raj Vohra is one table over, and he adds, "I can’t believe he went to the media desk to say that. He’s already told everybody."

Levin doesn’t care what they say, as he is proud of the hand and wants it to be in the WPT Live Updates.

As Levin goes back to his seat, Vohra says, "The most amazing thing about this story is that Sharon has 50,000 on Day 1."
