Must Be Nice

Next hand after knocking out Julian Thew, Stephane Hansen raised from the cutoff and got looked up by bothe the gentleman in the small blind and Nick Holbrook in the big blind.

All three players checked the {9-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {7-Spades} flop, and the blinds checked around to Hansen on the {J-Clubs} turn as well. He bet 1,675 and the small blind gave it up, but Holbrook called.

Both players checked the {Q-Clubs} river, and Hansen turned over {Q-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} for a rivered pair. Holbrook gave him a look that was around midway between disgust and amusement, and mucked.

"The monster's killing 'em!" cried a now very cheerful Hansen. "Sorry, dude."

He's up to around the 45,000 mark now.
