Fritz Bounces Back with Double Through Melki
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Manuel Fritz announced he was all-in from under the gun right after losing a pot the previous hand. The table folded to Jack Melki in the big blind, who chose to call to send them to a showdown.
Manuel Fritz: A♣6♣
Jack Melki: Q♣J♦
Both players caught a piece of the flop, but Fritz got the best of it when the flop fanned out 8♠A♦Q♠. The 9♦ turn gave Melki a gutshot, but the 9♠ river ended the hand in favor of Fritz, who secured a double and left Melki short-stacked.
