Ace from Space?

Level 33 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Dustin Melanson

The action was opened in middle position to 650,000 by Matthew Paplyk before it folded to Joey Messina in the small blind who flatted and the action was on Dustin Melanson in the big blind. After a moment in the tank he moved all in for his tournament life.

Paplyk called and Messina got out of the way before the cards hit their backs.

Dustin Melanson: A?Q? All in
Matthew Paplyk: 10?10?

The 2?7?8? flop landed and the tens were looking good. The 8? turn was safe but the miracle A? river took Melanson out of his seat with and "Wooooo!!!" as he stayed alive and got the pure double.
