We Told Ya So
In the introduction post for Day 2, we told you we would keep an eye on Table 366 because it started with the legend Carlos Mortensen sitting to the direct left of up and comer Sam Trickett. Sadly, David Sklansky exited from this table early, but Mortensen and Trickett have provided all the chip moving action we hoped for in just the first two levels. At one point, Mortensen had a top five stack and looked to be playing comfortably and with confidence.
However, as Mortensen has been falling, Trickett is stepping up and stealing the show. At one point, he was down to under ten big blinds but recently found a nice rush and now sits atop our leaderboard with 169,000. Mortensen has just 33,000 but you never know what he can pull from his sleeve.
