Deeb Doubles Through Safieddine

Francois Safieddine opened the action with a raise from early position to 2,600 before Shaun Deeb popped it up another 4,000 from the cutoff. The blinds folded and Safieddine was the lone caller as they took a flop of {J-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{7-Clubs}.

Safieddine was first to act and he led out for 17,000 before Deeb moved all in for his last 27,000. It was only 10,000 more to Safieddine who made the call.

Safieddine: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Deeb: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}

Deeb had the rockets and they held up when the turn and river bricked {5-Clubs}, {5-Diamonds}.

A great start to the day for Deeb as he now finds himself in comfortable shape with 50,000 as Safieddine slips back to the same amount.
