Richard Allen bites the dust

Richard Allen bites the dust

Monday, 21 September 2009

After folding pocket fives face up to a re-raise from JP Kelly, Richard Allen was both fairly short-stacked and perhaps a little knocked off-balance.

To add to the equation, Adnan Alshamah had just doubled up off Fabien Dunlop and was not looking like going anywhere any time soon. It was, perhaps, for all the above reasons that Richard Allen decided to come over the top of a raise from JP Kelly with A4. With his tournament life at risk, JP Kelly made the obligatory call with pocket nines. The board brought no suprises and Richard Allen became our 4th place finisher for £38,499.
