Three Queens Turn to Gold for Hansen

[user75032]

Another table that we approached at the river was that of Gus Hansen. He was in the pot with a bet of 6,625 on a board of {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

. There was already 9,000 in the pot prior to that bet.

Some deliberation ensued before Hansen's opponent called. Hansen showed {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

for a flopped set of queens. "That was an ugly turn for me," said his opponent, showing {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{9-Spades}

before releasing his hand. "Nice hand."

Hansen is up to 45,000.
