Hand #255 - John Hanson Doubles Through Freddy Deeb in a Monster Pot

Hand #255 - (7 Card Stud Eight or Better)

Bruno Fitoussi: {4-Spades}
John Hanson: {8-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Freddy Deeb: {K-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

3rd: Fitoussi brings it in for 50,000, Hanson completes to 180,000, Deeb completes to 360,000, Fitoussi folds, and Hanson calls.

4th: Deeb bets 180,000, and Hanson calls.

5th: Deeb bets 360,000, Hanson raises to 720,000, Deeb reraises to 1,080,000, and Hanson calls.

6th: Hanson bets 360,000 with his pair of eights, Deeb reraises, and Hanson calls all in for 560,000.

Hanson shows {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for two pair, tens and eights, and an open-ended straight draw. Deeb shows {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for two pair, kings and sevens. Hanson needs a queen, a ten, an eight, or a seven to stay alive.

Hanson catches the {Q-Hearts} on seventh street, and Deeb catches the {A-Clubs} -- no improvement. John Hanson wins the biggest pot of the tournament to this point.
