Mortensen Making Moves

Carlos Mortensen open-limped from early position and the player in the hijack position raised it to 350. The player on the button then made it 900 to go before Mortensen casually grabbed his entire stack and pushed it into the middle. The player in the hijack insta-folded and the button went into the tank.

"Man, do you have aces?" questioned the player, but Mortensen was motionless. The former eventually laid down his hand and Mortensen makes some early progress to now sit with 4,500 in chips.
