Hopkins Finds a Double

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Gus Hansen potted to 7,000 from the hijack and only Darrell Hopkins called on the button.

On the Q43 flop, Hansen led for 5,000, Hopkins potted, and Hansen took a while before he stuck the rest, and Hopkins called off his 51,500 remaining stack.

Darrell Hopkins: KKQ3 All in
Gus Hansen: A754

Hopkins had two pair along with his overpair, while Hansen had middle pair with straight draws and low potential. However, the board would run out Q4, and low bricked while Hopkins improved to a full house, and he collected the full double.
