On a board reading {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and the pot at around 20,000, Morten Mortensen bet out 10,500.

His opponent Nicholas Nicolaou deliberated for a while before eventually making the call.

Mortensen tabled his {K-Spades}{J-Spades} for a flopped straight, and Nicolaou mucked.

Mortensen is now back up to 267,000 in chips.
