Freddy Deeb Eliminated

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

Freddy Deeb was all in for his last few thousand chips with the {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} preflop. He was up against the {9-Spades}{8-Spades} for Ayaz Mahmood, last year's $10,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship champion.

The flop came down {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} to put Mahmood in the lead with a pair of eights. The turn was the {6-Clubs} and the river the {K-Spades}. Both of those missed Deeb, which meant Mahmood got the win and earned the elimination with his two pair, eights and sixes.
