Hall Still Leads, Mellor Up Then Down Again

Level 26
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Nathan Hall is just ahead of Jeffrey Cormier after winning a hand against Michael Mellor.
Mellor shoved preflop three hands in a row and took down the blinds and antes, but then he ran into quads again.
He was heads up with Nathan Hall and called Hall's river bet. He had jacks and Hall had quad deuces.
"That's the second time I've ran into quads," said Mellor, "how am I still here?"
"And both times you had jacks," said Jeffrey Cormier, "maybe you should just fold jacks."
