Mizzi Muscled Out by Mortensen

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Catching the action in five-bet pot we found Sorel Mizzi opening the action with his {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} only to be three-bet by an unknown player before Carlos Mortensen four-bet from the blinds with {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}.

Mizzi bumped it back with a five-bet to force the player caught in the middle to fold as Mortensen pushed. Mizzi called off the remainder of his stack, and when the board was spread {6-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{Q-Hearts}, he hit the rail as Mortensen climbed to 35,000 in chips.
