{4-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

, the player UTG bet 2,000 and Deeb called. The turn was the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

, the UTG player checked, Deeb bet 3,000 and his opponent called. The river was the {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

and the UTG player pushed all-in. Deeb thought a moment, and then called his bluff. He was right. Deeb turned over {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

for a pair and his opponent turned over {A-Hearts}
