Melert Strikes an Ace for a Bounty

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Over at Shaun Deeb's table, an opponent raised pre-flop, Deeb called next to act, and Shane Melert went all in.

The original raiser stuck his remaining chips in the middle while Deeb quickly folded.

It was a classic race, with Melert holding {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} and his opponent {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}.

His opponent stayed ahead on a board of {8-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, but Melert hit the {a-Clubs} on the river. The stacks were counted down, and Melert had his opponent covered to secure the bounty.
