Deeb Steady Stackin'

Livello 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action folded to Manuel Pochat who raised to 12,000 from the hijack before getting called by the button and Shaun Deeb in the big blind, leading to a 4♦A♦7♦ flop.

All three players checked through, bringing out the J♥ on the turn.

Deeb reached for chips and led out with a bet of 24,000. Pochat called and the button got out of the way, prompting the dealer to put the 3♠ out on the river.

Deeb paused briefly before reacjing for chips again and coming out with a bet worth 68,000. Pochat quickly folded and sent the pot to Deeb who continues chipping up.

Keating Bombs River, Shows the Bluff

Livello 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Stephen Song raised to 10,000 from under the gun and found one caller in Alex Keating from the button leading to a A♦6♠6♣ flop.

Song checked over to Keating who checked it back to bring the 5♠ out on the turn.

Song checked it over to Keating again, but Keating had no such plans to check it back again as he reached into his stack and came back out with a bet of 13,000. Song wasted little time in making the call to see the A♥ fall on the turn.

Song checked a third time and Keating entered a short tank, even burning a timebank as he pondered his action. Eventually, he would reach into his stack once more and toss out a bet of 75,000. Song quickly folded only to see Keating table the J♣10♦ for the stone-cold bluff.
