Trickett Run Down by the Matador
Sam Trickett and Carlos Mortensen have both been known to run like gods. So this match is a battle for run-good bragging rights. Mortensen moved all in on a board, and Trickett, who had him slightly covered, made the call.
Mortensen: for two pair
Trickett: for the flopped straight
The turn had Mortensen one card from elimination, but one card was plenty for the Matador. The on the river filled his boat and left Trickett crippled.
