Kuo Takes Down Mortensen

Level 16 : Limits 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Matthew Mortensen was one of the shortest stacks left in the tournament and raised it up on the button. Michael Kuo reraised in the big blind and Mortensen stuck in the last of his 27,000 chips. Kuo called and the cards were on their backs.

Matthew Mortensen: Q?9?
Michael Kuo: K?9?

Mortensen was facing an uphill battle and the flop of J?8?7? provided some additional outs. The 4? on the turn and the A? on the river bricked out and Mortensen was eliminated.

The field is now down to 41 players and the hand-for-hand portion of the tournament is now underway.
