Mortensen Takes a Small Hit

Carlos Mortensen raised on the button and Shunjiro Uchida called from the big blind. On the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop, Uchida check-raised Mortensen who re-raised him. Uchida made the call and then moved all in when the {J-Diamonds} hit the turn. Mortensen called but threw his hand on top of the muck when Uchida revealed {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for bottom full house.

Daniel Negreanu pointed out that Mortensen��s hand had to be shown though since there was an all in. The dealer retrieved the cards from on top of the muck and turned over the {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} of Mortensen which was drawing dead. The {J-Diamonds} on the river was merely a formality and Uchida doubled up although Mortensen still had one of the larger stacks remaining in the field
