Shaun Deeb Abusing RaSZi

Luke Staudenmaier raises from under the gun to 3,600. Lex "RaSZi" Veldhuis calls from early position as does Shaun Deeb from middle position. The flop comes {A-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} and action is checked to Deeb who bets 8,200. Staudenmaier gets out of the way and Veldhuis calls. The turn brings the {3-Hearts} and Veldhuis check-calls a 20,500 bet from Deeb.

The river is the {7-Diamonds} and Veldhuis checks for a third time. Deeb fires a final shell at the pot, moving all in for 140,000. Veldhuis tanks for about 90 seconds before mucking his hand.

Deeb seems to be targeting Veldhuis; this is the second time he has moved in on him in the past half hour.

Shaun Deeb - 190,000
Lex "RaSZi" Veldhuis - 142,000
