Is You Is Or Is You Ain’t Freddie Deeb?

The true identity of the online player known as Fast_Freddie on the Prima Network is in dispute. He claims to be Freddie Deeb. However, beyond dispute is the fact that just a couple of days ago, Fast_Freddie took down the largest online pot in the history of online poker play – a whopping $465,451. The player on the losing end of that pot is known as bad_ip.

While Fast_Freddie identified himself as Freddie Deeb during the match, an observer noted and posted at the twoplustwo forum that the “real” Freddie Deeb was being interviewed at the WPT in Paris, France at the same time the online match was being played…so I guess only Freddie really knows.

The hand history is given below. Presumably, both players flopped trip aces, but when the hand was over, bad_ip mucked his hand, so nobody really knows the losing hand except bad_ip. Interestingly enough, bad_ip was also involved in the previous record-high online pot, which was for $357, 256 and was played against I_Grind_on_u.
