Deeb Squeezes

Ty Spires raised to 60,000 in middle position. Stephen Plache, who had about 350,000 to start the hand, made the call, as did Chris Cronin who began the hand with 335,000. Freddy Deeb was in the small blind position and thought for awhile before announcing a raise to 360,000.
Spires quickly folded while Plache hit the tank. Eventually, he folded and it became Cronin's turn to think about it. After some thought, he slid in all of his chips, which were not enough to meet Deeb's raise.
Cronin: 
Deeb: 
Everyone chuckled a bit when Deeb revealed his hand, including Deeb who was happy to be in such good shape. The flop was 
and he improved even more. However, the 
turn changed the tides and left him drawing thin. The 
river brought each player a nine-high strait and the pot was chopped up.
