"Tell them you're playing with Freddy Deeb."
Jonathan Poche opened for 9,000 from the button and got two callers from the blinds — Freddy Deeb (SB) and Victor Shuchleis (BB). All three checked the flop, but the on the turn would invite more response from the trio.
First Deeb checked, then Shuchleis bet 15,000 and Poche called. The action back on Deeb, he raised all in for 61,000, and Shuchleis responded with a reraise all in himself which was enough to force Poche to the side.
Deeb showed for aces and deuces and a straight draw, while Shuchleis turned over for a set of sixes. The river then brought the and an expression of delight from Deeb as he had survived with a straight.
Shuchleis has apparently been tweeting some of the hands he's been playing, and Deeb told him to be sure to tweet this one, too.
"Tell them you're playing with Freddy Deeb," he said with a grin. "They'll love it!"
