Deeb Gets Tricky with Aces
Level 17
No-Limit Hold’em
Robert Wells opened the hijack to 6,000 and received calls from Shaun Deeb on the button and Yueqi Zhu in the big blind.
On the K♥J♦4♣ flop, the action checked to Deeb who bet 8,000. Zhu folded and Wells called.
The 2♥ peeled off on the turn. Wells check-called another bet from Deeb for 17,000.
The 5♥ completed the board. Wells checked for a third time and Deeb counted out a bet of 60,500. Wells deliberated for a while before he decided to call. Deeb revealed A♥A♦ to drag a massive pot shortly before the bubble.
