Family Pot

Shaun Deeb
Shaun Deeb
Shaun Deeb opened with a raise to 3,700 from early position. Jonas Kronwitter, sitting to Deeb's left, removed his headphones and asked Deeb how much he had left. "Fifteen yellows," said Deeb, pointing to his chips. Deeb had a few reds, blacks, and purples there, too -- about 100,000 altogether.

Kronwitter called, then Lika Gerasimova called, too, as did two more players (the cutoff and small blind). The flop then came {K-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. The SB checked, and Deeb continued for 11,700. Kronwitter and Gerasimova folded, then the player in the cutoff raised to 25,000. The small blind folded, and Deeb thought a little while before pushing all in. His lone remaining opponent considered a bit, then let it go.

"Why'd you have to start that?" cracked Deeb to Kronwitter. "Turned out to be a huge pot," he added.

Deeb trips back up to 135,000 with that one. Meanwhile, Kronwitter still is our chip leader with about 255,000. Gerasimova has a healthy stack, too, with 139,000.
