Deeb Probably Beat, Still Wins

Level 2 : 50/100, 100 ante

We arrived when the floor person stood behind the dealer on Table 456, giving the last 30 second to act to a player in the small blind. He had placed a bet of 2,075 in front of him on the river of the {4-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} board, facing a raise from Shaun Deeb who had pulled forward two orange chips of 5,000 each.

Deeb's opponent gave up in the last few seconds of the verbal countdown and a conversation about the strenghts of the respective hands followed.

"You probably had me beat," Deeb said and followed it with a laugh.
