Action folded around to Carlos Mortensen in the cutoff seat who raised to 13,000. Joe Pharo made the call from the small blind and the two took a flop heads up...

{A-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

Pharo checked dark and Mortensen fired out 25,000. Pharo raised to 55,000 and Carlos pondered a bit. Eventually Mortensen silenty pushed out a raise making it 85,000 to see the turn. Pharo called and the turn brought the {6-Diamonds}. Pharo checked and Mortensen bet 90,000. Pharo thought the better of it and tossed his cards in. Carlos "The Matador" Mortensen stacked the pot and is very much in the mix with 510,000.
