Every Hand Revealed

Cristian Dragomir
Cristian Dragomir
Gus Hansen's original table recently broke, and now he's seated at another along one edge of the spacious Kyiv Sport Center. A small group of people have gathered nearby to watch the Great Dane in action.

And action they have seen. The author of Every Hand Revealed has been involved in many hands, and had a good end to the previous level and start to this one, building his stack up over 50,000. Just now he was involved in another hand with Cristian Dragomir. Dragomir has also had a productive day, building his stack up over 60,000.

With the board showing {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, Dragomir fired a bet of 2,500 from middle position and Hansen called from the button. The river then brought the {3-Hearts}. Dragomir checked, and Hansen bet 4,400. Dragomir quickly called.

"I'm absolutely sure I do not have the best hand," said Hansen with a grin. "I have a jack," he said, showing the {J-Diamonds}.

"It is not good," said Dragomir, showing his {A-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for trip aces. "But the people watching want to see your hand," he added. "It's fine," said Hansen, showing his other card -- the {6-Diamonds} (a busted flush). "You can always ask," he said. "Not me," said Dragomir, shaking his head and insisting Hansen was showing his second card for the onlookers' benefit only.

Hansen now has 45,000, while Dragomir is up to 78,000.
