Kassem Ibrahim Freddy Deeb was born on 27 November 1955 in Beirut, Lebanon, and is a Lebanese professional poker player. He is known in poker by the name Freddy. His entry belongs here because poker is a competitive card game with an organised professional circuit, and the atlas treats champions and leading players of board and card games as athletes. The opening of his biography gives only his name in Arabic and English, his birth date and place, and his profession, so this entry is deliberately short and further detail on his tournament results remains to be added from further sources.
