Townsend Wins Flip to Double Through Mazza
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Mark Mazza moved all in for 18,600 under the gun and Shannon Townsend called off for 13,700 from the cutoff. The button and blinds all folded and it was off to the races.
Townsend: 
Mazza: 
Mazza was looking to hold to score the knockout, but that proved easier said than done as the 
flop paired Townsend. Neither the 
turn nor river was the seven Mazza needed and he was left with just 4,900 after the hand.
Fortunately, two doubles shortly thereafter allowed him to spin it up to 20K.
