Michael Woo Eliminated in 23rd Place ($45,773)

Mar 1, 2010

 With 200,000 chips in the pot already, Carlos Mortensen and Michael Woo see a flop of [Jc8c4c].  Michael Woo checks in the small blind and Mortensen bets 146,000.  He gives Woo a thorough staredown as Woo counts out a call.

There is some confusion about who’s turn it is to act and Woo informs the table he is going to wait to see the turn before deciding what to do next.  The turn brings the [3s] and Wo moves all-in for his last 600,000.  Mortensen continues to stare his opponent down as he says, "call."

Mortensen shows [JdJh] for top set and Woo turns over [QdQs].  The river brings the [Ac] and Woo is eliminated.  Meanwhile, Mortensen is the new chip leader with 22 players remaining.

Carlos Mortensen – 1,760,000
Michael Woo – Out in 23rd place ($45,773)
