Hang Escapes the Hangman's Noose

Level 17

Limit Hold'em

Action folded to Tommy Hang in the cutoff and he raised. Don Nguyen opted to three-bet from the small blind, Hang called and it was heads-up action to the {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop. Nguyen bet, Hang called and the dealer burned and turned the {J-Clubs}. Nguyen bet for a second time and Hang called off his last 50,000.

Hang: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Nguyen: {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Hang was well out in front with the cowboys and just needed to dodge a queen on the river to stay alive. That's exactly what he did when the harmless {a-Diamonds} peeled off on the river.
