Top-Top No Good For Deeb
Level 5
: 300/600, 600 ante
On a board reading 
a player in early position had all of his chips in the middle as did a player in late position. Freddy Deeb in the small blind, who still had a significant stack behind, had called. The late position player held 
while Deeb had 
for top pair top kicker. It was no good, however, as the early position player turned over 
for the flopped set that had filled up on the turn.
"Nice hand, very nice hand," said Deeb as he pushed a small pile of chips towards the at risk player, who had effectively tripled-up. Deeb took only a fairly minor hit to his stack and still has plenty of playability as the day nears its close.
