From the Plaza tournament, remember Freddy Deeb feared the small bet more than the big bet. However, he did this from players he knew and respected (Flack and Negreanu). I'm gonna guess that Freddy doesn't know you. Also, since you puked and folded that previous hand in this post, he's probably of the opinion that he can push you off of a nice pot with a strong bet.

Adding all this information together, it appears that Deeb could just be potting a scare card. Notice in hand 1 he potted/smaller bet (it appears). Perhaps Semibluff/value bet?

Absent information you get when sitting at a table (I don't mean physical tells, I just mean the subconscious absorption of information that often allows you make the right decision), this seems to me to be a clear push.

What were your instincts telling you? It seems to me, becaise you posted the hand, that your instincts threw up a big red "WTF" flag? I know whenever my gut does that, I need to take my time to think things through before I act.
