Hansen Loses Some

Gus Hansen raised it up to 1,000 in early position, and the button called. The player in the small blind raised it up to 5,000, and Hansen came along. The button folded, and the two players went heads up to the flop. They both checked the flop of {3-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, and they both checked the {7-Spades} on the turn. The river brought the {k-Diamonds}, and the small blind checked to Hansen, who fired out 5,500. His opponent called, and Hansen rolled over {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. However, his opponent tabled {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} for a winning pair of kings.

After that hand, Hansen drops back down to 56,000.
