Melville Hooks a Whale of a Pot

Alistar Melville raised to 150,000 preflop, and Vanessa Selbst called. The flop came out {J-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {6-Clubs}, and Melville bet 150,000. Selbst bumped it to 425,000. Then Melville announced he was all in for another 1.125 million. Selbst thought for a minute, and tossed out enough traffic-cone-orange T100,000 chips to cover him.

He flipped over {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} for top set. "Wow," Selbst said, showing {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} for a gutshot. The {9-Spades} on the turn gave her an open-ender, but the {6-Diamonds} on the river instead filled Capt. Ahab's boat. Melville doubled to a little over 3 million. Selbst fell to 5 million, but she's still comfortably in the lead.
