Bohlman led out with a pot-sized bet of 39,000, and that sent Deeb deep into the tank. He started talking to himself. "Well, I went with this hand and I flopped it..." he began, trailing off. He counted down his stack, and he only had 38,200 left. After another moment, he said, "Well, I hope you don't have a set," and he announced the call.
"Aces," Bohlman said, rolling over for top set. It was just as Deeb feared, and he tabled for the underset.
"I'll give you a ride home," Lyle Berman said, now standing adjacent to Deeb sweating this final hand.
"Not if I catch a four," Deeb answered with a grin. The turn and river were the and , though, and there's no quads and no more chips for Deeb.

Kevin Chance: / /
Shaun Deeb: / / MUCKED
Don McNamara brought the action in, Deeb completed and Chance called before McNamara folded, making it heads-up to fourth street - although it almost didn't happen, because the dealer accidentally mucked Chance's ! The players were quick to jump on the dealer's error, but after the card was retrieved, play resumed.
Chance opened and Deeb called, then Deeb led out and Chance called on fifth before Deeb check-called Chance on both sixth and seventh streets. Deeb was far from pleased to see Chance's straight, walking off in a huff, but he's still well in contention as we approach the halfway mark of this final level.
