Hands Off Hansan's Chips

We caught up with the action on the turn of the {J-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} board, Martins Adeniya betting out 3,500 into an already sizable pot. His opponent, the very youthful Mike Hansan, flat-called and they saw a river.

The river came down the {2-Clubs} and Adeniya now checked. His hands shaking really quite wildly, Hansan pushed three ragged stacks of brown and yellow 100-denomination chips across the line, an amount which turned out to be 4,300. After a little while, Adeniya folded. Hansan's very serious face quickly melted into a most endearing giggle.

Hansan's up to 24,000 after that, while Adeniya drops to 11,000.
