Deeb Dances With The Magician

Antonio Esfandiari and Shaun Deeb have just tangled in an early pot with Deeb getting the upper hand. Deeb raised preflop with Esfandiari calling on the button and a third player coming along in the big blind.

The flop fell {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and play checked to Esfandiari who fired 5,400. The big blind folded but Deeb put in a check-raise to 13,000. Esfandiari made the call and the {3-Diamonds} hit the turn.

Deeb came out with a bet of 16,600 and Esfandiari asked for a count of Deeb's remaining stack. Deeb had 28,000 behind and Esfandiari decided to give it up.

Deeb jumps to 71,000 with Esfandiari down under 100,000.
