Deeb Flies American Airlines

Shaun Deeb
Shaun Deeb
Dmitry Stelmak started the action with a late-position raise to 750. Next door, Shaun Deeb popped it up to 2,150, and action paused on Carter Phillips in the blind. He considered briefly before grabbing all ~17,000 of his chips and sliding them forward with a quiet, "All in."

Stelmak would tank for a couple minutes as he shot glances in Deeb's direction. Finally though, he elected to release his cards, and Deeb instantly called.

Showdown
Deeb: {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts}
Phillips: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}

"Two jacks," said Stelmak, and Deeb complimented his fold. Phillips had a forlorn look on his face as the bad news sunk in. Looking for lots of help but finding none, he watched the final board of his day run out {2-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {6-Spades} {5-Spades} {8-Clubs}. That's all she wrote for the American online qualifier, heading off to the rail after wishing his opponents luck.

That win brings Deeb back up to 48,500.
