Hansen deserves recognition for his class and the sportsmanship he showed when he was essentially crippled in the 50K H.O.R.S.E. event last night. In a very large pot that saw the elimination of Gabe Kaplan, Hansen had rolled up threes and made a full house on the river. His opponent, Freddy Deeb, had no pair showing and 3 hearts. Hansen got into a raising war on the river with Deeb that left him with just 40K chips. Deeb had four of a kind, with 3 sixes in the hole, leaving Hansen extremely short on chips going into today's final table.
Thor was eliminated in 8th place but had the courage and stamina to "get back on the horse" and play today's event.
