Somewhere near the middle of this final table, Alexandre Nadeau-Levesque went on a heater, and never looked back. Combine this with his good decision making and excellent reads, and it is no doubt that he was the last man standing in this ‘Shootout” event!
In the last hand of play versus heads-up adversary Robert Notkin, who won last year’s Canada Cup Main Event for $366,660, Alexandre opened from the small blind to 65,000, and was followed by a call from Robert. On a flop of

Congratulations!
Event 12 Champion: Alexandre Nadeau-Levesque – $3,340
