Carden Curbs Ortega
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Joseph Carden and Jacques Ortega were already at the turn with a 8♠Q♥J♠9♣ board when Ortega had bet around 1,000,000 into a 1,000,000 pot. Carden raised to 1,695,000, forcing Ortega to go all in if he found a call.
Ortega stood from the table and deliberated the decision for a while before moving a stack of chips in to call.
Jacques Ortega: 8♥8♣
Joseph Carden: A♣10♦
Ortega was sitting with a set of eights which he had hit on the flop, but Carden was ahead with the straight, which he had made on the turn.
The river came the 2♣ which didn't improve Ortega, and he was eliminated from the tournament.
