Deeb Thinks About Shoving on Covaciu
Level 28
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Shaun Deeb opened from the cutoff and Paul Covaciu defended his big blind.
On the 7♠6♣10♥ flop, both checked to the 7♦ turn, where Covaciu bet 130,000. Deeb called to the 9♦ river, where he was faced with a bet of 425,000 from Covaciu.
Deeb was in the tank for quite some time, but eventually laid down what he said to be ten-nine for top two, and convinced Covaciu to show 8♣5♣ for a straight.
"I was thinking about shoving," Deeb said.
"That would have been sick, I don't know if I can call," replied Covaciu.
