Deeb Improves from a Set to a Flush . . . and Still Loses.

Shaun Deeb raised to 1,600 and was called by the big blind, who checked when the flop came {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Deeb bet 1,600 and was raised to 3,600 by the big blind.

Deeb made the call and the turn came {10-Hearts}. The big blind shoved all in and Deeb called immediately, showing {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. Unfortunately for him, he was behind his opponent's flopped straight with {5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}.

The river was the {K-Hearts}, giving both a flush; however, Deeb's was lower and he dropped down to 20,000 in chips.
