Level 20: 12,000-24,000, 3,000 ante
After Freddy Deeb called down Jason Burt's failed bluff, the two engaged in quite a conversation.
Jason Burt: "Let me know when you show to Commerce with all the money you won."
Freddy Deeb: "Is that a heads-up invitation?"
Burt: "Sure."
Deeb: "You don't have enough money to play with me."
Burt: "I can raise the money."
Deeb pauses for about 20 seconds, where it seems like the conversation has ended. But then Deeb offers some advice: "Don't act like Phil Hellmuth." Deeb goes off on a little rant for about a minute, comparing Burt's comments with those of Hellmuth after a player sucks out on him.
Eventually, Deeb backs off from his earlier comments and says, "I don't know who you are. I might have to borrow money to play you." Burt laughs, and the demeanor of the table improves.
Deeb offers some empathy at the end, saying, "It's not a good feeling, to lose half a million, especially this late in a big tournament. I know how you feel." Deeb then asks, "What is your name?"
Burt: "Jason."
Deeb: "Nice to meet you, Jason. My name's Freddy."
Burt laughs, as he (like almost everyone in poker) knows who Freddy Deeb is. After a few more relaxed comments, Deeb even invites Burt to his house for barbecue if they do end up playing at Commerce someday.
Level 20: 12,000-24,000, 3,000 ante
Jason Burt raises on the button and Freddy Deeb reraises to 200,000 out of the small blind. Burt calls and the two see a flop of 9
74
. Both players check and the turn comes J, putting a third diamond on the board. Deeb checks his cards before checking once again. Burt bets out 285,000 and Deeb calls.
The river is the 5
and Deeb checks a third time. Burt deliberates for a while before betting out 330,000, leaving just over half a million behind. Deeb thinks briefly before calling and waits for Burt to turn up his card. Burt shows AT for ace high.
"Pair of sevens," Freddy announces, turning up K7. He takes down the sizeable pot and now trails only Jason Lavallee on the chip counts.
Freddy Deeb - 2,450,000
Jason Burt - 540,000
Level 19: 10,000-20,000, 2,000 ante
Level 18: 8,000-16,000, 2,000 ante
After a flop of AA
8, Freddy Deeb bets 75,000, and Terry Ryan very confidently pushes his half-stacks of chips into the pot in a messy all-in move. Deeb says, "Alright, you got me. Very good."
Deeb folds, and Ryan proudly flips over K5 for a king-high bluff. The table congratulates Ryan on the bluff, though Deeb seems a little peeved.
Terry Ryan - 760,000
Freddy Deeb - 1,035,000
Level 17: 6,000-12,000, 1,000 ante
Freddy Deeb doubles through Dee Luong when his pocket aces hold up against her pocket kings and she is left with only 87,000 chips.
Freddy Deeb - 1,230,000
Dee Luong - 87,000
After the hand Dee jokingly tells the table, "Aw man, now I am going to bust out before Prahlad." She is referring to her husband, Prahlad Friedman, who is still in with 250,000 chips.
A few hands later Jason Lavallee opens for a raise and Luong moves all-in from the big blind. Lavallee calls and tables A8,which is racing against Luong's 66. The board runs out AJ378 and Lavallee pairs his ace to eliminate Luong and take the pot.
Jason Lavallee - 1,350,000
Dee Luong - eliminated
Level 16: 5,000-10,000, 1,000 ante
Jason Lavallee raises to 25,000 from early position and Freddy Deeb calls from the cut off. The flop comes A76 and both players check. The turn pairs the board with the A. Lavallee bets out 41,000 and Deeb min raises to 82,000. Lavallee makes the call.
The river brings the 5 and the hand gets checked down. Lavallee shows AQ and Deeb mucks his hand. Lavallee drags in the pot, putting him over the million chip mark.
Freddy Deeb - 550,000
Jason Lavalllee - 1,030,000
