2008 Partouche Poker Tour - Cannes

€8,500 Cannes Main Event

Gus Hansen Eliminated in 9th Place ($82,745)

The look says it all.
The look says it all.
Left with only 181,000, Gus Hansen committed them all to the middle when it was folded around to him in the small blind. He received a quick call from Alain Roy in the big blind with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}. Hansen had the same ill-fated {A-Hearts} {6-Hearts}.

The board came {8-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {A-Clubs} {9-Spades} {3-Hearts}.

The queen kicker played eliminating the Dane just shy of the final table of eight players. He definitely will not sleep well tonight.
