"Now We've Got a Game!" Schreiber Bluffs Deeb & Shows It

No-Limit Hold'em

Back-to-back no-limit hold'em hands got the table laughing as Shaun Deeb goaded Matthew Schreiber to "just raise blind" in the cutoff.

"Okay, I raise," Schreiber said after looking at his cards.

Jon Turner and James Obst called the 6,500 raise and all three players checked on the 3♣3♠4♣ flop and 7♥ turn.

Turner checked again on the 9♣ river and Obst bet 10,000. Schreiber raised to 26,000 and Turner folded. Obst laughed about his predicament and called.

Schreiber showed K♠9♠ for top pair, but he was pipped by the A♦9♦ of Obst and got an earful about it from Deeb.

"Great raise!" laughed Deeb. "You're playing great!"

The next hand, Schreiber raised to 4,000 and Deeb was ready to play.

"Why less this time? Let's find out," Deeb said as he three-bet to 20,000, which Schreiber called.

Schreiber checked on the flop of 9♦A♦8♠ and Deeb continued for 15,500. Schreiber questioned the bet size and called.

"I'm trying to confuse you," said Deeb.

Schreiber checked on the 8♦ turn and Deeb checked back. Schreiber then led out for 45,000 on the 5♦ river and Deeb complained that it was a "below average runout" for his hand, before folding.

Schreiber then proudly tabled Q♣J♣ for a bluff with queen-jack, which Deeb said was good anyway since he had J♥7♥.

"Now we've got a game!" said Erick Lindgren.
