Mortensen Gets Shown a Bluff
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
We caught camera crews swarming around Carlos Mortensen's table so we headed over to see what the commotion was. There was over 100,000 chips in the pot with the board reading 
. The player that Mortensen was in the pot with put out a bet of 60,000 and the former Main Event champion was in the tank.
After about a minute and a half Mortensen released his hand.
"Get the cameras around for this one," the player said. He showed 
for no pair and just a gutshot straight draw.
"If I could beat the nine, I would've called," Mortensen said.
Either way, Mortensen was forced to give up the pot and he dropped to just about 160,000 chips after the hand.
