Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

The board was already reading {9-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and Shaun Deeb was facing a 2,700 bet in the cutoff after big blind Chance Kornuth put in the middle. Deeb called and both players saw the river.

The {10-Spades} river completed the board and Kornuth bet 20,000. Deeb called the 100 big blind bet and saw Kornuth table {A-Spades}{7-Clubs}. After he took a good look he opened up {J-Spades}{9-Spades} himself for a straight and the winning hand.

Deeb could launch himself in the top spot of the Player of the Year race again by cashing in this event, even though it's gonna be really exciting.
