Meldrum Fires With Bullets

Andrew Meldrum

Australian Andrew Meldrum has just eliminated a player from today's event. In a raised pot, the player in the big blind open-pushed on the flop of {4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} but Meldrum quickly called with {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} for an overpair and nut flush draw, to have his opponent in bad shape with {J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}.

The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and river {10-Hearts} and Meldrum is now up to 23,600.
