Comroe Finds Miracle To Back Into Double
Level 23
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mykel Comroe went all in for 375,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Jeremy Liu, who called from the small blind and immediately tabled his hand.
Jeremy Liu: 
Mykel Comroe: 
Comroe found himself up against pocket aces for his tournament life and his odds only got worse after the flop came 
, giving him only running outs to Broadway, a wheel, or trip tens to stay alive. The turn fell 
to give him hope with four live outs still in the deck. The river 
gave him exactly what he needed, securing the double at the expense of Liu and giving him a stack of over 20 big blinds with which to play.
