Ensrud Catches a Miracle to Double
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Marlin Leidholm limped in from the hijack before Jeremy Ensrud moved all in for 35,000 in the cutoff. Greg Passa reshoved on the button, and Leidholm got out of the way.
Jeremy Ensrud: J♥10♠ 
Greg Passa: Q♠Q♦
Ensrud had run into Passa's queens and found no help on the K♥K♠8♥ flop, leaving him drawing only to running cards to survive. The 6♥ turn gave him some hope with a flush draw, and he caught the 2♥ on the river to make his flush and double up.
