Townsend Receives a Gift From Mallu

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Joseph Townsend is up to 246,000 thanks to a gift from Alli Mallu.

Townsend opened to 4,500 and then instantly called when Mallu three-bet all-in for 50 big blinds with what turned out to be ace-seven off suit. Townsend held {A-}{K-}, which held, and Mallu heads into the cold, Nottingham air.

Mallu's Gonna Mallu

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We've just been chatting to Tamer Kamel who was in disbelief at what he'd witnessed at his table, hands involving the legendary Alli Mallu.

Mallu is infamous for playing any two cards and playing them like his life depends on them. As you'll see from the following two hands, Mallu is rather unpredictable.

Chi Zhang opened the betting and Mallu three-bet him from the next seat along. Korey Nix was to Mallu's immediate left and he four-bet to 20,000, which folded out Zhang. Mallu then jammed for 200,000 with what turned out to be {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and then lost to the {K-}{K-} of Nix.

A short while later, Toby Robinson raised and Mike Tomney called. Mallu pushed his 35,000 stack into the middle only to see Robinson re-shove and Tomney snap call.

Robinson held {9-}{9-}, Tomney the {A-}{A-} and Mallu {J-Spades}{7-Spades}. Mallu's hand improved to be the best by the river and he's suddenly gone from hero, to zero, and back again in the space of an orbit!

Fletcher Doubles Through O'Connor

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

The action was on Kelly Saxby on the button and the American set the price to play at 5,000. Jamie O'Connor, in the small blind, defended with a three-bet to 12,500. Michael Fletcher, a wily veteran in poker terms, four-bet all-in for 36,000. Saxby got out of the way, but O'Connor made the call.

O'Connor: {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Fletcher: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

O'Connor took the lead on the {K-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} flop and stayed there on the {2-Clubs} turn. Just as it looked like O'Connor would be adding even more chips to his stack, the {Q-Diamonds} improved Fletcher to the best hand, much to the dismay of Saxby who said she folded {A-}{J-}.
