Scratch That, Malooq Back on Track

Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Scratch that, Faizan Malooq is back in the fast lane after he just stacked Darren Jarvis, albeit with a little help from Lady Luck.
With 3,000 chips in the middle on a flop of Q?J?10?, Jarvis had committed his stack of around 16,000 to the pot and Malooq had also moved all-in for around 20,000, which forced the third player in the hand to fold.
Darren Jarvis: 10?10?
Faizan Malooq: J?9?
Jarvis had flopped middle set, which suddenly didn't look so good on the 8? turn as Malooq improved to a straight. A paired board is what Jarvis needed, but he never got his wish as the 7? meant he was eliminated, and Malooq got back on track.
