More Hit Rail, Deeb Chips Up

Mimi Tran, Peter Eastgate, and Kathy Liebert have all busted. So has Daniel Alaei, after building a decent-sized stack early on.

In Alaei's bustout hand, Shaun Deeb raised to 2,400 from middle position, a player called from the button, Alaei reraised all in for 23,000 from the big blind, Deeb called, and the third player got out of the way.

Alaei showed {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades} and Deeb {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}. The board came {J-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, and Deeb took it with his jacks. Deeb is now up to 72,000.
