Hansen Takes One Out
The action started with Thor Hansen opening to 700 from middle position, and finding a call from the player near the button, as well as both blinds.
The flop came down 
, as the blinds checked their options, before Hansen threw out a continuation bet of 1,400. His opponent then raised it up to 7,225, which he thought was his all in. He hadn’t realised the 500-chip that was protecting his cards, as the action folded back around to Hansen, who also hadn’t noticed, and made the call.
The 
fell on the turn, and Hansen threw in a 500-chip, and his opponent called, as both tabled their cards.

Hansen was in great shape to eliminate his opponent from the tournament, and when the 
completed the board, he had done just that, with his ace-kicker proving the difference .
