Morten Erlandsen AKA "Pokergirl1"
Mortan Erlandsen from Denmark is more well known for his exploits in cyberspace than he is on the live circuit. Erlandsen, who got the curious name after starting out in poker playing on his Mother's account, first played a hand of poker back in 2000. It was Seven-Card Stud on a family trip to the States. Then Erlandsen heard about internet poker and started playing $2-4 Stud online and slowly made his way up. After playing Stud all the way up to $50-100 online he then made the switch to NLHE and since then he has not looked back.
He is now guaranteed his biggest ever live tournament cash with 14 players left at EPT Vienna. We caught the "Pokergirl1" winning some chips in this hand.
Erlandsen opened from under the gun to the tune of 66,000 and Bruno Launais called from the cut-off. The flop was and Erlandsen, riffling two piles of red chips, checked and Launais who was doing exactly the same thing bet 74,000. Erlandsen announced all-in for 381,000 and after taking his shades off for a closer look Launais laid it down and surrendered the pot to "Pokergirl1"
