Mello Cracks Aces With Quads
Level 9
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Allan Mello opened to 600,000 in the hijack and Leon Sturm three-bet to 2,300,000 in the big blind. Mello called.
Sturm sized down to 1,000,000 on the flop of 3?5?10? and Mello raised and then called off for around 6,300,000 as Sturm three-bet to put him all in.
Allan Mello: 10?10?
Leon Sturm: A?A?
Mello had flopped a set and didn't even need to dodge a heart as the board finished out 7?10? to improve him to quads for an emphatic double.
