From middle position, Carlos Mortensen raised to 4,600. Bill Perkins called out of the cutoff seat and the flop came down {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Mortensen fired a continuation bet of 6,800, but he was met with resistance in the form of a raise from Perkins to 21,000. Mortensen thought for a little bit and then folded his hand, allowing Perkins to take down this pot.

Perkins Busts Mortensen

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Bill Perkins has just sent the 2001 World Series of Poker Main Event champion to the rail. With a little over 50,000 chips in the middle on the {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop, Mortensen moved all in for 65,000. Perkins made the call after thinking for a bit with the {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}. He was ahead of the {K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for Mortensen and held after the {4-Hearts} hit the turn and {6-Hearts} hit the river.

Aces for Hunichen

Team PokerStars Pro Barry Greenstein fired 8,000 on the {J-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop before Chris Hunichen raised to 20,000. Behind him, Nick Yunis made the call and then Greenstein folded.

The turn was the {7-Spades} and both players checked through to see the {10-Hearts} land on the river. Hunichen bet 45,000 and Yunis tank-called after a couple minutes of thought. Hunichen revealed the {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} and Yunis mucked.
