Melo Survives
Level 38
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Luciano Melo was down to one big blind and called in the cutoff to put himself at risk. Joey Couden raised to 3,500,000 on the button to isolate and both the players in the blinds folded.
Luciano Melo: A♣6♠
Joey Couden: Q♦10♠
The board ran out 7♣2♣A♠7♠6♣ with Melo improving to two pair by the river to secure the much needed double up.
