Lavis Doubles Through Deeb with Ten-High
Level 11
: 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
A player in early position opened to 7,000 and Freddy Deeb flat-called in middle position. Lorenzo Lavis then three-bet shoved a stack of around 45,000 from the small blind.
The initial raiser folded and Deeb thought for a minute before tossing in a call with Lavis covered.
Lorenzo Lavis: 
Freddy Deeb: 
Lavis had the bigger pocket pair and still held the lead as the flop came 
. The 
on the turn counterfeited both player's pairs and created some chop possibilities, but the 
on the river secured a double-up for Lavis with just ten-high against the deuce-high of Deeb.
"Ten-high is good? Ah man. Nice hand," said Deeb.
