Pablo Ortiz

Ferguson raised on second street and proceeded to bet each one with Pablo Ortiz making the call.

Chris Ferguson: {X-}{X-} / {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} / {X-}
Pablo Ortiz: {X-}{X-} / {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{9-Hearts}{j-Hearts} / {X-}

Ferguson bet once more on seventh for 1,200. Ortiz thought about for a few seconds and then tossed in the call.

Ferguson showed {A-Clubs}{a-Hearts} and a {q-Hearts} for aces full of queens with Ortiz flashing his {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} and was left with just a couple of big bets left.

Ortiz would then bust in the next few hands.
