Hansen Soft Bubbles
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Limits: 10,000-35,000
Shaun Deeb raised to 35,000 from the cutoff and only Gus Hansen called from the small blind.
Hansen checked the 10♣9♥7♥ flop and Deeb bet 75,000. Hansen check-jammed for 84,000, which Deeb quickly called.
Gus Hansen: A♣10♥3♣5♥
Shaun Deeb: Q♣J♥5♠4♦
Hansen had top pair and a flush draw, but Deeb had a lot of cards he could hit to eliminate Hansen. The 2♠ turn gave a possible low draw, but the J♣fell on the river to give Deeb the winner with a pair of jacks. The tournament was now on the direct bubble.
