Just when we thought we'd be here grinding it out for another few hours, Full Tilt Red Pro Carlos Mortensen has just been busted in ninth place!

Mortensen limped in from UTG +1 and Michael Zowie called from next door, as did Graeme Putt from the lowjack position. William Thorson limped in from the button and then Michael Greco checked from the big blind to make it five-handed to the flop of {A-Spades}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}.

Thorson checked to Mortensen who fired out 10,000 in chips, which then saw the action fold back around to Thorson who quickly check-raised to 35,000. Mortensen looked up in surprise.

"Oh, okay then," he mused before shipping the rest of his stack into the middle and tabling {A-}{10-}{7-}{4-} for two pair. Thorton showed {J-Clubs}{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for middle set and it held after the turn and river ran out {Q-Diamonds}, {J-Diamonds}.

Ladies and gentlemen, our official final table is set and we are officially in the money! The chips are now being bagged and tagged - time to wrap this one up!
