Mortensen Takes a Small Hit

Carlos Mortensen raised on the button and Shunjiro Uchida called from the big blind. On the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop, Uchida check-raised Mortensen who re-raised him. Uchida made the call and then moved all in when the {J-Diamonds} hit the turn. Mortensen called but threw his hand on top of the muck when Uchida revealed {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for bottom full house.

Daniel Negreanu pointed out that Mortensen’s hand had to be shown though since there was an all in. The dealer retrieved the cards from on top of the muck and turned over the {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} of Mortensen which was drawing dead. The {J-Diamonds} on the river was merely a formality and Uchida doubled up although Mortensen still had one of the larger stacks remaining in the field
