Carlos Mortensen Doubles Through Thomas Wahlroos

Carlos Mortensen raised to 200,000 from early position. Thomas Wahlroos called and Guy Laliberte called from the big blind. The flop was {A-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Wahlroos checked, Laliberte checked, and Mortensen bet 500,000. Wahlroos moved all-in and Mortensen insta-called. Mortensen showed the {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} for a set of aces, while Wahlroos showed the {A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for top pair and the nut flush draw. The turn was the {7-Spades}, giving a full house to Mortensen and Wahlroos was drawing dead. The meaningless {2-Hearts} fell on the river and Mortensen doubled up.

After the hand, Mortensen was up to 5.6M in chips while Wahlroos dropped to 4M.
