Hansel Sends One Out

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Chris Hansel bet 7,000 from middle position on a board of Q♥3♥A♥6♦, a player in the hijack moved all in for 15,000, and Hansel called.

The hijack turned over A♠K♥ for top pair, but Hansel had flopped two pair with A♦Q♠. "Alright, give me a heart," the hijack said going to the river, but he missed the 7♣ and was sent to the rail.
