Brown Falling Down, Hansen Continues Ascent

Level 13
Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen

Omaha-8

The Gus Hansen Express keeps rolling along. Just now came a hand in which Chad Brown raised from middle position, Jon Turner called from the button, and Hansen called as well from the small blind. The flop came {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}, and Hansen bet, getting a call from Brown and a fold from Turner. The turn was the {K-Hearts} and Hansen bet again, and once more Brown called.

The river brought the {2-Clubs} and another bet from the chip leader. Brown called again, then mucked after seeing Hansen's {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for fours full of kings.

Brown is down to about 85,000 now, while Hansen sits with about 1.165 million.
