Mortensen Can't Take the Heat

Level 2 : 300/600, 0 ante
Carlos Mortensen
Carlos Mortensen

From the hijack, Carlos Mortensen made it 1,400. David Oppenheim, on the button, was the only caller.

Flop: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}

Mortensen led out for 2,000 and was faced by a reraise to 4,400 by Oppenheim. Not to be outdone, Mortensen made it 3,400 more, for a total of 7,800. Oppenheim made the call and the turn brought the {q-Clubs}.

Both players checked to the river, which was the {3-Hearts}, and that's where the action was. Mortensen bet 9,500 and after quite a bit of thought, Oppenheim slide his whole stack, about 19,000 into the middle.

It didn't take long for Mortensen to fold, and Oppenheim took down the pot.
