Morten Mortensen Eliminated in 10th Place (€98,350)
It happened again! Morten Mortensen is left mortified after a horrible bad beat has busted him in 10th place exactly four seasons after he busted in 10th place in the 2012 EPT Barcelona Main Event.
Adam Owen raised under the gun to 230,000 and Pavel Plesuv called in the cut off. Morten Mortensen raised to 775,000 from the small blind, and when Adam Owen shoved all-in for almost ten million chips, Mortensen quickly called it off.

The flop of kept Mortensen ahead, improving on his 69% pre-flop chance percentage. But the turn was a nightmare for him, and despite having seven outs on the river, he could find neither a king or a jack as the ended his tournament in the worst possible way.
While Mortensen's rail are dejected, Adam Owen's fans have gone crazy. Their man has 15 million chips, a vast lead over the field and every chance of making the EPT Main Event final table as leader. Neither he - or Morten - can hardly believe what just happened.
