Melnick Makes the "Craziest Call I Ever Made" to Bust Carey
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
After three players limped in, Alex Goya raised to 9,000 in middle position. Gary Melnick called under the gun and Irene Carey then moved all in for 27,300 in early position.
Goya folded as action went back on Melnick. "I think you're bluffing. This will be the craziest call I ever made," he said as he eventually called to put her at risk.
Irene Carey: A♦Q♥
Gary Melnick: Q♠9♣
"You have me super-dominated," Melnick said once the cards were revealed, but he caught a pair on the 9♦6♥5♦ flop to take the lead. The rest of the board came Q♦3♣ and Melnick finished with two pair to send Carey to the rail.
