Hansel Spikes a Nine to Stay Alive

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Chris Hansel
Chris Hansel

Matthew Nilges raised to 22,000 in middle position and Chris Hansel three-bet jammed for 139,000 in the hijack to put himself at risk. Nilges took some time to think through his decision before making the call.

Chris Hansel: 99 All in
Matthew Nilges: JJ

The flop came K4Q with Nilges' pair of jacks still in the lead. That was until Hansel drilled the 9 on the turn to improve to a set. The A fell on the river and the pot was pushed Hansel's way.
