Carlos Mortensen opened to 400 in the hijack, and from the cutoff, Anais Lerouge re-raised to 1,125. Mortensen wasn't scared off by the EPT London Ladies Event winner's uncharacteristic aggression. He four-bet to 4,425, and Lerouge opted to call to see the 
flop. The Matador checked to his opponent, whose boyfriend, Antoine Saout, was eliminated early yesterday. Lerouge bet 5,125. Mortensen played with his chips for several minutes, counting out differently sized stacks for deciding on a flat call. Both players instantly checked the 
turn.
Mortensen went back to taking his time after the 
river completed every draw in the book. He bet 8,300 in a long line of chips stacked in twos. Lerouge looked pained as she made the call. Mortensen tapped the table and turned over an unimproved 
. Lerouge's 
was plenty good enough to win the hand. Mortensen fell to 12,000 as he shipped his chips to the left, boosting Lerouge to 47,000.
