So Long, Freddy Deeb

Freddy Deeb has joined the ranks of railbirds here in Level 3. The hand developed slowly, with a preflop raise of 900 that was called in three spots. On a flop of {q-Spades} {k-Clubs} {4-Diamonds}, a player's 2,200-chip bet was called by Keven Stammen and Deeb. All players checked the {10-Spades} turn.

The river fell {Q-Diamonds}. Stammen checked to Deeb, whose bet of 6,000 folded the third player in the hand. Stammen check-raised to 37,000, but as Deeb was only playing 11,000 behind it was effectively 11,000 back to him. He called all in with a Broadway straight, {A-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}. It was no good. Stammen showed down {K-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs}, a full house. He took the pot and sent Deb crashing out of the Main Event.
