Hand #86: Nicholas Haynes raised to 250,000 on the button, and both blinds folded.

Hand #87: Jesse Kertland raised to 255,000, and Jorge Ruiz called in the big blind. The flop came {2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Ruiz led out for 400,000. Kertland raised to 1.1 million, Ruiz three-bet to 2.21 million, and Kertland called all in for his last 1.1 million.

Jesse Kertland: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Jorge Ruiz: {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

The flush came in for Ruiz on the {a-Hearts}, putting Kertland in dire straits. Kertland found the miracle on the river, however, with the {7-Clubs} hitting the board for a full house to double up.
