Montel Finds an Ace

With few chips left, talkshow host Montel Williams led out preflop for 1,500 and was called by the big blind. The flop fell {Q-Spades} {7-Clubs} {4-Hearts} and Montel checked, only to be raised all in. Montel made the call and showed A-9 while his opponent held Q-J. An ace spiked on the turn for Montel and his hand held up to take it down.

After the hand, Montel is up to 4,300.
