Deeb Holds Against Rafael
Level 17
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Sean Rafael raised from middle position to 350,000 and was called by Shaun Deeb in the hijack and Bryce Yockey in the big blind.
Yockey checked the 8♣Q♣3♥ flop before Rafael fired 1,200,000. Deeb responded with an all-in. Yockey folded before Rafael made the call to put Deeb at risk.
Shaun Deeb: Q♥J♦10♥9♥
Sean Rafael: A♣K♣5♦3♦
Deeb held top pair and inside straight draws, but Rafael was threatening with a flush draw. Rafael was unable to improve on the 4♦ turn and the 7♦ river to award Deeb the pot.
