 | Lederer, Deeb, and Weitzman are high stakes Bellagio regulars, and Zalewski, a Houston player, is an extremely tough no-limit player who comes into town regularly enough, and is usually one of the players on whom you can get an individual price in The Big One (i.e., he's considered amongst the top 20% of the field). |
 | Deeb folded, and as Howard collected the pot, he said, "I don't even know why I looked (at his cards)." He'd figured Deeb would move at him, after his two-card draw, and had already planned on playing back. |
 | Deeb drew two, and Lederer drew one, and as Howard asked for the card, Deeb laughed and launched into a long story about a live (money) game that had happened two years before. |
