Shaun ****in' Deeb! (Part 2)

[user75032]

It's good to be Shaun Deeb, apparently. He's the far and away chip leader after felting another opponent in particularly brutal fashion and giving him the bad beat story of a lifetime. Deeb opened the pot for 3,200, then reraised to 40,000 after an opponent in middle position made it 9,100 to go. That opponent called all in for about 30,000 with {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

, a hand that had Deeb's {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

absolutely crushed. The case king hit a flop of {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

, but Deeb made the miracle runner-runner straight with a {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

turn and

{J-Hearts}

river. He's up to 168,000.
