Deeb Bluffs and Shows as He Takes the Lead
Level 29
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Limits: 160,000-560,000
Shaun Deeb limped the button, Philip Sternheimer completed from the small blind, and Bruno Furth checked his option in the big blind.
On the K♦6♠5♥ flop, the action checked to Deeb who bet 250,000 and both opponents called.
The turn was the 9♠. Furth led from big blind for 1,100,000 and only Deeb called.
On the A♣ river, Furth checked to Deeb who potted for 3,590,000, and Furth laid it down after a minute's tank.
Deeb tabled A♠8♥3♠3♥ for a missed flush draw as he would have only gotten half had Furth called. Deeb now takes the chip lead for the very first time.
