Melogno Splashes the Pot

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Pablo Melogno
Pablo Melogno

The flop read {4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Pablo Melogno was all-in and at risk from the hijack as Masato Yokosawa had him covered in the big blind.

Pablo Melogno: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Masato Yokosawa: {a-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

Yokosawa had flopped a straight and only another five could save Melogno's tournament life right now.

The turn was the {8-Clubs} and the river completed the board with the {9-Clubs} to seal the deal. Melogno did not get up from his chair immediately.

Instead, he decided to flick his stack over the line in several stages, summoning his best Teddy KGB in Rounders impression, which seemed to confuse everyone at the table. About fifteen slow flicks later, he was done and got up from his chair to make his way to the payout desk, while the confusion at the table had turned into loud laughter.
