After Michael Mellor raises under-the-gun, he’s called by Van Tam Ho in the big blind.
The flop comes 
and Ho check-calls a bet of 8,000 from Mellor.
As the dealer places the 
on the turn, Ho immediately spikes his stack of 23,500 into the middle, sending Mellor into the tank.
Mellor thinks for over a minute before making the call to put Ho at risk, but he’ll need help.
Van Tam Ho: 
Michael Mellor: 
The dealer completes the board with the 
and Ho earns himself a double-up with his sneakily played aces which Mellor acknowledges after the hand.
“I didn’t f***in’ believe you. You just flatted me preflop.”
Van Tam Ho – 72,000 (60 bb)
Michael Mellor – 43,000 (35 bb)
