Pocket Rockets for Jay Rockets Sends Melander to the Rail

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Todd Melander
Todd Melander

Jay "Rockets" Melancon raised to 5,500 from middle position and 2017 Minnesota Magazine Player of the Year Todd Melander three-bet jammed for around 40,000 from the hijack. Action folded back to Melancon and he wasted little time in making the call.

Jay Melancon: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Todd Melander: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Melander was in a bad spot but got a little hope when the {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} brought him a queen. He was looking for another lady to stay alive, but it wasn't in the cards as the {2-Spades} bricked on the turn followed by the {9-Diamonds} on the river.
