Rivered!

Talk about a swing in emotions here at the ballroom at the Bellagio. Carlos Mortensen was ready to make history until that {10-Diamonds} spiked on the river. That miracle card allowed Kirk Morrison to double up. A stunned Mortensen shook his head in disgust as Morrison ran over to the rail and gave his friends a few high fives. The Mortensenheads sat in silence while Morrison's fans exploded with adulation.

Just when it appeared that Mortensen made the comeback of the year, a simple {10-Diamonds} crushed his chances of making history. He's back to where he was over an hour ago... seriously shortstacked with a lot of work ahead of him if he wants to win.
