Sergeey Doubles Through Mortensen

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

Sergey Sergeev was down to only 10,000 chips but just found his much-needed double up.

It was Morten Mortensen who opened the hand with a raise to 750. Sergeev called from the button only to see big blind James Akenhead throw in a three-bet to 3,000.

Mortensen called, as did Sergeev. The flop came down {3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Akenhead continued for another 3,000. Mortensen called and Sergeev moved in for 7,250 total.

Akenhead immediately folded but Mortensen made the call.

Morten Mortensen: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Sergey Sergeev: {3-Spades}{5-Spades}

Sergeev flopped trips and was in great shape to double up. Mortensen needed running kings or aces but was left drawing dead when the {7-Hearts} hit the turn.

He did improve with the {K-Clubs} on the river but thad didn't matter anymore.
