Level 33
: 70,000/140,000, 140,000 ante
Freddy Deeb opened to 300,000 from under the gun and Tom Marchese defended from the big blind. The flop came 
and both players checked to the 
on the turn.
Marchese led out for 285,000 and Deeb called to see the 
on the river. Marchese made a small bet of 160,000 and Deeb found the price cheap enough to call. Marchese turned over 
which was good enough to beat Deeb's 
.
"Next time I'll make it a million and you won't call with ten-seven," Deeb spat. "The minimum I'm raising from now on is 500,000."
"Well the blinds are going up next hand," Marchese responded with a laugh.
The players are now heading on another 15-minute break.
