Freddy Deeb

In early position, Freddy Deeb opened the pot with a raise to 600. A player in late position reraised to 2,100 and Deeb called to see a flop. It came down {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

, and Deeb check-called a bet of 2,350. On the turn, the {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

drew another check from Deeb, and he would call 3,800 this time.

Fifth street came the {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

, and Deeb tapped the table again. His opponent put out a big bet of 12,000, enough to cover the gregarious pro. Deeb eventually returned his cards to the muck, electing to hang on to his 11,000-chip remainder for a better spot.
