Deeb Firing on All Cylinders

ajlamers

Niveau 3 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Freddy Deeb just got paid off on a huge river bet of 300,000 against Zachary Schwartz where Deeb turned over a full house to approach seven figures.

Then he was heads-up with Masashi Oya with around 70,000 in the middle and the board reading J♠J♣9♣J♦. Deeb led out with a bet of 100,000 from the small blind and Oya called to see the 4♥ on the river.

Deeb announced all in and Oya went into the tank for a couple of minutes with a stack of around 400,000 in front of him. Oya eventually called and Deeb turned over J♥7♥ for quad jacks to trump Oya's K♥K♦.
