The Return of the Spaniard

Juan Carlos Mortensen dug himself an early rut, but is showing signs of resilience, as can be seen in the following hand:

Seat 4, Mark Radoja, made it 250 to go and Mortensen made the call from the big blind. The flop came down {Q-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {2-Spades} and Mortensen check-called a 300 bet from Radoja.

When the {8-Spades} came on the turn, Mortensen check-raised a 900 bet from his opponent, making it 2,300 to go. After some thought, Radoja made the call.

The last card off the deck was the {K-Clubs} and Mortensen continued his aggressive assault, firing a 3,000 bullet on the end that made Radoja surrender.

After the hand, Mortensen climbed back up to 13,000 in chips.
