Menchella Doubles With Quads, Ellison's Big Slick No Good
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
With around 15,000 chips already in the pot on a board of K♥2♣5♦J♥, Alexander Ellison fired out a bet of 5,500. Franco Menchella then ripped his stack of 15,400 into the middle, and Ellison made a quick call.
Franco Menchella: J♦J♠ 
Alexander Ellison: A♥K♣
Ellison was drawing dead and was already asking the dealer for a count before she dealt the river. Menchella improved to quads when the J♣ filled out the board, and his stack grew to almost 50,000.
