"You Play Fast But You Fold Slow"
The player under the gun limped and action folded to the cutoff who raised. Shaun Deeb called from the big blind and the under-the-gun player called as well to bring out a J♠K♦5♠ flop.
Action checked through to the J♦ turn card and again, all three players checked to bring out the 3♠ on the river.
Action checked through once more and Deeb quickly tabled 8♠5♥4♠4♣ for a flush getting a quick fold out of the under-the-gun player.
The cutoff was slower to release his hand, though, joking with Deeb saying, "Where were you?" as he stared at his cards.
Deeb responded by saying, "There was a check-raise coming. Now, go ahead and fold those cards. You play fast but you fold slow."
Deeb and his opponent laughed as the cards hit the muck with the dealer pushing the pot to Deeb as he continues to chip up early only a few days removed from winning his sixth bracelet.
