It seems likely that, before each player made his way to his seat, Tom Dwan and Gus Hansen were playing each other in heads-up PLO online earlier in the day. Hansen will have plenty of time for heads-up PLO the rest of the night. He moved all in from the small blind for 5,625 after one opponent opened for 1,200 in middle position and another called in late position. The middle position player folded to Hansen's reraise, but the late position player made the call after tanking for about a minute.

"I'm hoping you don't have two overcards," said Hansen. He showed {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{J-Clubs}

. His opponent had just that, turning over {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

. It was a queen window card on the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{9-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

flop. The rest of the board came {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{5-Clubs}

to knock Hansen out.
