POKER INFO - PROILE - Kaseem Deeb

I was in Tunica, MS this past weekend playing blackjack and hold 'em at the Gold Strike Hotel and Casino, and I got to meet Mr. Deeb, who was walking through the casino. Not only is he a great poker player, but he's also a very nice guy.

Freddy Deeb is a good poker player. But lets not over do it here. For those of you who say he is better than Gus, I would say your dead money at a poker table. Wake up and get a clue. He is not even in the top 10 in the world. Gus Hansen, Daniel Negraneau, Howard Lederer, Phil Ivy, Phil Helmuth, T.J. Cloutier, just to name a few. Freddy makes the mistake of not betting before the flop when he has a hand and tries to wait and get a pay off at the end, and against the better players he will lose his money 9 out of 10 times because he can be scared out of pots by big bets in the early betting rounds. He's just to easy to read. They say nice guys finish last and Freddy is a really nice guy...

i have nothing to say, just wanted to rub in Q 10..lol

thinks he is in the mafia...whats with his shirts,,,looks like devito. In conclusion a bad poker player

I had the privelege of meeting freedy this past weekend at harrahs san diego. Freddy is way more down to earth than most any one i've ever met. Gus and Freddy are both great players, and for anyone who thinks Gus is just lucky read Card Player vol 18 Feb 2005, there is a great article. Thanks for the autograph Freddy, Vanessa and I will see ya in Vegas this summer for that small tournament at the Rio and Horseshoe ..... lol...... good luck buddy.....

freddy deeb is a good, not great poker player.And he's greasy, slimy. Not exactly someone you wouldlike to hang around. He's actually more reprhensible than Lyle Berman or Billy Baxter.

Gus Hansen couldn't play his way out of a wet paper bag and needs a road map to know what hand to play...he's is just lucky and has no class or style. He should go back to Denmark or where ever he is from and herd his goats.

Hey morons this is a freddy deeb thread not gus hansen's.

i met freddy at the belagio last week and there isn't a nicer more friendly poker player out there. He sat and chatted with us for at least 25 minutes. great guy.

This guy is a great, i call his all-in with a mediocre Q-10 hand against his big slick. Was i worried? No, because i have a habit pulling BS wins with crap. No hard feelings, im really a crap player who just wins with luck - u have real skill and patience.

ohhh my god how can you say anything like that, you said in Bellagio after you just lost to Gus Hansen. He will always kick your ass!

Has the worst fashion in the game but he is fun to watch!

I'm not saying that he's not a great player, he is a great player and would whoop my a$$ for sure, but is no where near the player Deeb is. He's way too loose and aggressive. And that is a fact. I would put money on Deeb against Hansen in the long run." Bullshit, you fool, deeb isnt that great, hansen won the wpt championship and the poker superstars I tournament... deeb wins a good amount of money in cash games but in tourney play, hansen fucks him in the ass every time...and freddy likes it...alot

Nothing to say, but underrated. Great player.

friend of mine out played this moron with 3 8's against Q-Q. busted Freddy out,must be the shirt.

what was this guys name?

Erick Cunningham and it was 3 5's not 8's

Check it - dat dude sucks, strait up and down, aight? No respeck to dis dude after Daniel N. sticks it in him consistantly, aight

Hey Ali, learn some English you doorknob.

I'm disgusted and offended by the previous post. C'mon now! If a person proficiently masters the nuances of ebonics then the sky's the limit. Virtually any opportunity is a door open miles wide. One can get a top-level job sweeping streets, shining shoes, or "slingin''caine". Not to mention it is an absolute necessity when inevitably ending up in jail...........BEIOTCH!!

whats this guys ultimate bet screenname

no, its actually ALLINwithKAorPAIR

Kassem is player good all he plays is 80% skill and 27% luck, all people like donuts

Deeb is good, can't hate his style...but Hanson makes more mistakes than I've seen most pros make, and then benefits from them? I just don't understand it.

You're right destructo, Gus will either bust out early or have a monster chip lead at the final table. Once he builds up that chip he can do whatever the fuck he likes and bully everyone else out of the game.

All you guys stop hating on Freddie - just because he's announced a jihad on the poker world doesn't mean he's a terrorist. Get with it guys and give the kebab juggler the credit he deserves.

Hey! That's my dad you guys are all talking about over here! And for the 1/2 of you that just like to talk shit, you have no idea how good of a player he is... You guys are just a bunch of hot heads who think you are all bad cause you play online. Get real! Don't be so jealous just cause your not one of these guys. My dad is a super cool guy and i'm sure if you guys met him you definately wouldn't be writing half that shit! To the rest of you! Thanks.. you guys are nice....

I think Mr. Deeb is one of the coolest players out there. I always root for him. "May your opponents surrender or fall short against your hands."

[?????]

He was to small to be a jockey!...true fact
