Deeb is Sometimes Lucky, Pichierri Out
Level 15
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alessandro Pichierri opened to 60,000 from the cutoff and Shaun Deeb shoved the big blind for 470,000. Pichierri quickly called.
Shaun Deeb: A♦7♦ 
Alessandro Pichierri: J♦J♣
Deeb was way behind, but leapt way in front on the 7♠A♠K♠ flop as he made two pair. Pichierri was in seek of a jack, but the 9♦K♣ runout didn't contain one, which meant he was eliminated.
Shortly after, Pichierri got his K♦J♥ in from middle position for 30,000 and Deeb three-bet big with A♦7♦, the same hand he just doubled up with.
The runout of A♣6♥10♥9♥3♠ gave Deeb a pair of aces and sent Pichierri on his way.
