Hansen Doubles Up

It's a tough break for Gavin Smith. He bet a flop of {8-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} after Gus Hansen checked. Hansen check-raised, then called all in once Smith shoved. Smith turned over a flopped straight with {5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}; Hansen showed a flush draw, {q-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. Hansen's draw filled right away when the turn came {7-Clubs}.

"Daniel, you can buy out now for $2,000 if you want," Hansen called out to Daniel Negreanu. Negreanu wasn't buying.
