Mello Doubles Through Raymond
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The action folded to the table chip leader Alexandre Raymond on the secondary feature table. He moved all-in with the covering stack and Allan Mello called all-in for the last 565,000.
Allan Mello: 
Alexandre Raymond: 
While the shorter stack would usually hope for an ace, that would have been the worst case scenario on the 
flop. Raymond had an open-ended straight draw and two live cards but bricked the 
turn and 
river for Mello to double.
