Gus Hansen raised to 93,000 from under the gun. Ryan Elson moved all in for 694,000 from the small blind. Hansen had Elson covered and made the call. The players showed...

Hansen: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Elson: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}

Hansen failed to improve and Elson's jacks were best. Gus was left with about 100,000.

A few hands later, Hansen was on the button and moved all in for his last 99,000. Jason Koshi called from the big blind and the players turned up their cards...

Hansen: {K-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Koshi: {Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

Koshi spiked the {4-Clubs} on the turn to win the hand and send Gus Hansen to the rail in 61st place. "The Great Dane" earned $154,194 for his strong finish in this year's main event.
