Level 9
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Shaun Deeb opened 30,000 under the gun and Grant Dekker called in the small blind before Jeremy Ausmus raised 215,000 from the big blind, leaving just 15,000 behind. Deeb eyed both Dekker's and Ausmus' stack before announcing all-in. Dekker snap-folded, and Deeb prematurely opened his hand. As Ausmus was thinking, Deeb instantly called the clock. The floor came over and gave Ausmus thirty seconds to act, and Ausmus made the call.
Jeremy Ausmus: A?Q? 
Shaun Deeb: J?J?
It was a classic race and the Q?2?2? flop gave Ausmus the lead with a pair of queens. The 10? turn and 3? river changed nothing as Deeb paid the bet.
