Hansen Gets the Needed Double

Gus Hansen was one of the first players to use up both his rebuys earlier today and for much of the day has been one of the short stacks. While he doesn’t yet have a big chip stack, he has recently doubled up and is currently much healthier.
The hand in which Hansen doubled up was against last night’s GDAM Warm-Up fifth-place finisher Tore Lukashaugen. It all started with Lukashaugen opening to 65,000 from under the gun. Hansen was on the button and quickly three-bet more than half his stack. The blinds were quickly out of the way and within just a few moments, Lukashaugen had raised, all of Hansen’s 481,000 in chips were in the middle and the cards were on the felt.
Hansen: 
Lukashaugen: 
Hansen was in front and looking good and it stayed that way as a 
board meant that Hansen had doubled up to just under 1 million.
