Mortensen Out; 64 Remain

Level 12
Carlos Mortensen
Carlos Mortensen

Stud-8

2001 WSOP Main Event champion Carlos Mortensen has been eliminated by Matt Hawrilenko.

All in and squeezing seventh, Mortensen showed {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} while Hawrilenko had tabled {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{K-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Mortensen needed to pair up again, catch the case king, or fill his Broadway gutshot to survive, but seventh brought him the {8-Spades} and the Matador is out. Hawrilenko has 250,000 now.

There are now 64 players left, exactly half of the starting field of 128.
