Phan vs Mortensen

On a flop of {7-Spades}{K-Spades}{4-Spades}, John Phan led out with a 2,000 bet which Carlos Mortensen called. The turn brought the {3-Clubs} and Phan fired a second barrel worth 2,500, and once again Mortensen made a stand against the chip leader and made the call.

The river brought the {3-Spades} and Phan fired for a third time with a bet of another 2,500. Mortensen made the call, but quickly mucked his hand as Phan showed {J-Spades}{J-Hearts} for a rivered flush.

Following the hand Phan holds over 60,000 in chips, while Mortensen is now struggling with about 7,000.
