Mortenssen and Hardt Both with Aces

Level 5 : 150/300, 300 ante
Morten Mortensen
Morten Mortensen

The third bullet is going well for Jussia Mattila as he has grown his stack to around 90,000 in chips. As we were counting his stack a hand was developing on the table.

Morten Mortensen bet 2,300 into a pot of over 3,000 with the flop reading {6-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Mattila called as did Anastasija Sivaka before Nils Hardt jammed his stack of 10,450.

Mortensen tanked for a minute before he over-jammed his stack of 23,800. Mattila asked for a chip count before both he and Sivaka folded.

"Freeroll!" Hardt shouted after he turned over {a-Clubs}{a-Spades} and his opponent turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}.

Hardt then called for another club to complete a flush after the {5-Clubs} came on the turn. However, the {9-Hearts} wasn't one of the cards he needed and settled for a chop with Mortensen.

Salickas Ousts Lahtinen

Level 6 : 200/400, 400 ante

Vytenis Salickas opened for 1,000 before Jari Juhani Lahtinen jammed his short-stack of 4,200. Salickas snap-called and turned over {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} and was in good shape against his opponent's {9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}.

The {5-Hearts}{a-Spades}{j-Hearts} flop improved Salickas' hand even further and his opponent was drawing dead after the {k-Hearts} came on the turn. The {10-Diamonds} on the river made the hand official and Lahtinen was felted. Lahtinen's Main Event might not be over as he can opt to reenter up until the end of the first blind level of Day 2 if he so chooses.

I Just Wanted to Know What You Have

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante
Mantas Urbonas
Mantas Urbonas

With about 8,000 in the middle, both Anne Meri and Mantas Urbonas checked the {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop. Urbonas then bet 3,500 on the turn and Meri tanked.

As she folded she asked Urbonas what he had. Urbonas turned over {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a flopped straight. Urbonas asked if Meri had anything.

"No, I just wanted to see what you had," replied Meri.

Lucky King for Van Der Marel

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

With about 10,000 in the middle, Toumas Ranta bet 5,500 with the board reading {2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. Nicholas Willem Bernard Van Der Marel jammed his stack of about 27,000.

Ranta snap-called and turned over {9-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for two pair while Van Der Marel looked like a player about to hit the rail with top pair holding {k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. However, Van Der Marel was able to improve to trip after the {k-Spades} paired the board on the river to double-up and save his tournament life.
