Melchers Doubles in Rollercoaster Runout

Level 17 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Dorian Melchers
Dorian Melchers

A pot of around 180,000 had already brewed between Dorian Melchers in the big blind and Michel Knoepfer from the hijack. The flop read 6♥10♠9♣ and Melchers shoved his last 9,500, which Knoepfer called.

Dorian Melchers: J♥J♣ All in
Michel Knoepfer: A♦5♣

Melchers was well in front, but the brutal A♠ turn left him with just two outs going to the river as Knoepfer binked an ace. There was no movement from Melchers after seeing the turn, and he exhaled a huge puff of air when the J♦ spiked the river to give him a set and the rollercoaster double-up.
