Deeb Loses Some

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Three hands were face-up before the flop when we got to the table. Shaun Deeb was in middle position and had both of his opponents covered; one was in the big blind with a stack of 22,700 and the other was in the cutoff with a much shorter stack.

Shaun Deeb: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}
Big blind: {Q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Cutoff: {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Deeb had the preflop edge and both of his opponents needed to improve in order to survive. While Deeb retained his lead on the {5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop, the {Q-Hearts} on the turn put the big blind squarely ahead. The {J-Clubs} on the river changed nothing and the big blind took the pot.
