Freddy Deeb Takes a Hit

Freddy Deeb
Freddy Deeb
We caught up to this hand on showdown when the pot was being pushed to Freddy Deeb's opponent.

On a board of {10-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}, Deeb tabled {9-?} {9-?} and was second best against the {J-?} {J-?} of his opponent. Both men seemed worried about the four card straight as well as the flush possibilities but it didn't stop either from playing their set hard and fast.

The pot was quite sizable and when the dust settled Deeb was left with just 3,475 chips.
