Title: Carlos hace el de triple Post by: TightEnd on March 26, 2010, 11:17:26 AM Carlos Mortensen is best known for his victory in the 2001 World Series of Poker Main Event. He is still the only player to have won the WSOP main event and a WPT championship. Mortensen had two WPT titles under his belt when he reached the final table of the 144-strong WPT Hollywood Open, but has now added a third after beating Mike Mustafa heads-up. He now ties Gus Hansen for most WPT wins but tops the all-time WPT money list outright, adding the $400,000 first prize to $5.5m in winnings. The last hand of Mortensen’s record-breaking title was one of those hands in all fairness to his opponent – the two players got all the money in on a T96 board, with Mustafa holding T9. However, Mortensen’s 87 had flopped a straight which faded the four outs to take down the tournament. The full list of prizes and payouts at the final table is as follows: 1st Place: Carlos Mortensen - $393,820 2nd Place: Mike Mustafa - $223,623 3rd Place: Frank Calo - $167,717 4th Place: Chris Bell - $124,966 5th Place: Ravi Raghavan - $105,234 6th Place: Jerry Payne - $88,791 I still don't think I could walk past the table without knocking that stack over though (http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa48/gfdsa146/carlos_mortensen-749167.jpg) Title: Re: Carlos hace el de triple Post by: geordieneil on March 26, 2010, 11:30:30 AM an "accidental" bump into the table order of the day ;)
