Malm on Wrong End of Ruling; Mortensen Out
Level 4
: 75/150, 0 ante
We got to Table 441 just as the tournament supervisor arrived. Apparently, Michael Malm, who was facing a bet of 1,800 from an opponent, had held out all of his chips in his hand but pulled them back after his overeager opponent had tried putting all of his chips in. The floor ruled that he had to call the bet since Malm had made a forward motion with his chips and induced action from his opponent.
"Your flush is good, I just have an eight," Malm said. Sure enough, his opponent turned over 
for a flush on the 
board.
Meanwhile, Carlos Mortensen's seat is now occupied by another player.
