Heartbreaker for Deeb

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 100 ante

Shaun Deeb was under the gun and put in a raise to 2,500. Action folded to the player in the small blind and he decided to reraise to 7,000. Deeb wasted no time in grabbing his stack, about 15,000 more, and moving all in. The small blind called and the cards were turned up:

Deeb: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Small Blind: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}

It was a race situation and Deeb fell far behind when the flop came down {A-Spades}{6-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}. Deeb removed his sunglasses and began to rise from his seat in defeat as the dealer burned and turned the {10-Spades}! Deeb had hit his cards and began to sit back down as the {J-Hearts} spiked on the river. The table let out a collective gasp as Deeb's hand was beat on the river and he was eliminated from the 2011 PCA late in the day.
