Two Big Stacks Make One Giant Stack

Mouritsen
Mouritsen
Brent Hanks made the wrong move at the wrong time. He got tangled in a pot with Rene Mouritsen in which only one would be left standing. Hanks made a bluff at the pot when the board read {10-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} by betting all in. Mouritsen had him covered by a few thousand and made the call with {7-Hearts} {7-Spades}. Hanks begrudgingly tabled {Q-Hearts} {6-Hearts} and knew he was drawing dead to Mouritsen's full house.

Three hands later Mouritsen still hasn't stacked all the chips. He has roughly 500,000 in chips.
