Hansen Doubles Before Dinner
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Limits: 6,000-28,000
On the turn of a board showing J♥9♠Q♣6♥, Gus Hansen bet from the big blind and Chad Eveslage raised to put Hansen all in for his 101,000. Hansen happily called.
Gus Hansen: K♥K♠Q♠10♠ 
Chad Eveslage: A♠Q♦J♣8♣
Hansen had the nuts with a straight, and Eveslage needed a queen or jack on the river to bust him. The river came a blank and Hansen doubled up.
