Kiang Turns Jack to Double

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The hijack player opened to 23,000, Eric Kiang called in the small blind, and the big blind, who has been laughing and having fun all day, jammed. The hijack folded and Kiang called off his remaining stack.

Eric Kiang: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}
Big Blind: {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

"Deuces never loses," the big blind said. "Put that in the blog."

The {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} came on the flop, and the {j-Clubs} hit the turn to put Kiang in front. The {7-Diamonds} completed the board to prove that, sometimes, deuces do indeed "loses".

"Alright I take it back, don't put that in the blog," the big blind said as Kiang chipped up.
