More Ups And Downs For The Matador

Juan Carlos Mortensen
Juan Carlos Mortensen

Carlos Mortensen has been up and down all day but maintaining a well above-average stack in the process.

In this hand, a late position player raised it up to 2,200, Mortensen re-raised to 5,100, and the big blind re-raised all in for 15,700. The late position player folded and Mortensen made the call with {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} The all in player showed {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} and the board came down {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{2-Clubs}

The pair of aces was enough for the all in player to double up and Mortensen went back to violently stacking his chips as he fell under 100,000.
