Deeb Chipping Up

Level 4 : 150/300, 0 ante

With about 2,000 in the pot and a flop of {A-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, Shaun Deeb checked under the gun and his opponent in the hijack bet 1,000. Deeb quickly raised to 3,200 and it was enough to take down the pot, boosting him to 37,000.

The bad news for Deeb is that Olivier Busquet, who has 110k, is seated at his table. The good news is Busquet is seated to his immediate right, so Deeb will have position on him all day long.
