Kuether Strengthens His Chip Lead

In a battle of the blinds, Freddy Deeb limped in in the small blind, and Joe Kuether checked his option. The flop came {9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}, and Deeb checked to Kuether, who fired out 35,000. Deeb responded with a check raise to 100,000, but Kuether wasn't budging, as he made the call after a minute of thought. The turn came the {2-Diamonds}, and Deeb fired at it once again, this time for 150,000. Again, Kuether thought for about a minute before putting in the call.

Both players checked when the {7-Clubs} hit the river, and Deeb showed {8-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for a pair of fours. It was no good though, as Kuether tabled {9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for top pair. After the hand, Kuether now has 2 million, while Deeb is back down to 625,000.
