Shaun Deeb Is Probably Good

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

In what was initially a multi-way pot, hijack Mike Sexton reduced the contest to just two runners with his bet of 5,000 on the {9-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop. Shaun Deeb was the lone caller.

The turn was the {J-Hearts}, and Deeb check-called one more time, with Sexton pricing the river card at 15,000. The {2-Spades} hit the felt, and Deeb checked yet again. Sexton looked at his cards, letting Deeb know what he thought.

"All right, you're probably good," Sexton said.

"I think so," replied Deeb, rolling over his {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for a flopped set.

Sexton mucked, confirming his previous statement.
