Mortensen Doubles Up

On the flop of {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, Carlos Mortensen checked, the next player bet, the player after that folded, Freddy Deeb raised, the player on the button folded, Mortensen called and then the original bettor called.

The turn brought the {2-Hearts} and completed a possible flush draw. Mortensen bet, the next player called and then Deeb called.

The river card was the {8h{, putting a fourth heart on board. It also made the board eligible for a low. Mortensen bet and was all in. The next player raised and then Deeb called.

Deeb mucked his hand after Mortensen showed the {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and the other player showed the {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Mortensen was all in and able to chop half the pot to double up to 7,000. Deeb dropped to 15,500.
