Hennigan Gets There To Double

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Limped twice by John Hennigan and a player in the cutoff, the small blind completed and the big blind checked.

The flop came {7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and after two checks, Hennigan bet 6,000. The player in position called and the turn was seen heads up.

The dealer put out the {8-Spades} and Hennigan's bet of 20,000 was met with an immediate all in from his opponent. Hennigan had only about 32,000 behind after his initial turn bet and made the call for less.

Hennigan: {k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

Hennigan was in bad shape but the river {a-Diamonds} dug him right out of the hole. He made a flush and the nut low with one card and doubled to 118,000.
