Level 14 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Carlos Mortensen
Carlos Mortensen

In a battle of the blinds, Carlos Mortensen and Kwinsee Tran put got it all in for Mortensen's ~50,000 remaining chips. It was a coin flip with The Matador's {7-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} racing against the {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} of [insert Tran's nickname here].

The {A-Spades} {J-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} flop was overkill for Tran, and Mortensen was drawing at the two-outer for survival. The turn {6-Diamonds} and river {6-Hearts} were both a rank too low, though, and Mortensen has been eliminated in 28th place. His chips push Tran all the way up to about 210,000 and into contention for the chip lead.

The field is now being redrawn for the final three tables.
