Defending Champion Shaun Deeb Eliminated in 17th Place ($28,618)
Level 20
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Shaun Deeb moved all in for 139,000 from the hijack, and Alan Goehring called on the button.
Shaun Deeb: 
Alan Goehring: 
Board: 
Deeb hit a queen on the flop but also saw Goehring improve to a set. Deeb was half out of his seat when he picked up the up-and-down straight draw on the turn, but the defending champion departed when the river card was no use to him.
Day 2 entrant Deeb exits in 17th place for $28,618 but will be back in action in the $1,500 Closer tomorrow after he bagged the Day 1b chip lead.
