With a little less than 100,000 already in the pot, the board shows [10d4h3hAs] on the turn. Taylor Von Kriegenbergh bets 42,500 from the small blind, and Steven Levy thinks for a while before he calls from the button. 

The river card is the [Qc], and Von Kriegenbergh thinks for a while himself before betting the same amount — 42,500. Levy thinks for a bit before he declares, "Call." 

Von Kriegenbergh turns over [AdQh] for top two pair, and Levy’s body language indicates that he’s beat. Levy studies the board for a few moments before he mucks his cards, and Von Kriegenbergh takes down the huge pot, worth about 275,000.

After the hand, Levy tells Von Kriegenbergh, "I almost folded because you bet so small."
