Quad Aces for Melius

Level 19 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Barth Melius ended up getting his 498,000 chips in from the button and was at risk against the hijack.

Barth Melius: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Hijack: {k-Spades}{5-Spades}

Melius was a bit of a favorite as the {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop improved him to top set. He just needed to fade running cards, and the {a-Diamonds} hit the turn to provide no sweat as he improved to quad aces and secured the double when the meaningless {9-Hearts} completed the board.
