Dean McIver must have borrowed Eric Assadourian's lucky charm. He raised to 7,500 from the button after Neil Channing opened for 2,500. Channing put in a third raise to 15,000 that McIver called.

Both players checked the {2-?}

flop. When the turn fell another deuce, Channing led out for 10,000. McIver tanked for a while before deciding to move his last 30,000 into the middle. Channing snap-called with pocket aces. McIver was dead to a two-outer when he turned over pocket jacks. No problem, though -- a jack spiked on the river to give him a full house. He's up to 90,000, while Channing's misfortune has dropped his stack to 30,000.
