Cronin Doubles
One hand after Deeb raised to 70,000 and folded to the 350,000-chip three-bet by Ryan Gentry, Deeb raised again under the gun to 70,000. This time he was called by Ty Spires in middle position before Chris Cronin moved all in from the big blind for 398,000.

Eventually, he decided to put his opponent at risk and the cards were on their backs.
