Melancon Busts Hammers, Takes Chip Lead

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Tom Hammers ran into a set.
Tom Hammers ran into a set.

We found Tom Hammers getting his last 20,000 or so all in on a {7-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{10-Spades} against big stack Jay Melancon, who made the call.

Melancon: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Hammers: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Hammers had an overpair and a straight draw, but he trailed the set of Melancon. A {5-Clubs} bricked off the turn, and the {2-Clubs} did likewise on the river. Melancon appears to have the chip lead here on the penultimate level.
