He's Been Gusted

It was folded around to a short-stacked player in the cutoff who moved all in for his last 8,000. Gus Hansen was in the next seat and he did his usual dwell whilst contorting his face, brain trying to burst out. He ended up making the call with {A-Spades} {8-Hearts} but was behind {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}.

But this is Hansen, and the board ran {8-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} to hit his three-outer and eliminate his opponent.

Peter Costa commented as the player left, "He's been Gusted!"

Hansen on 113,000 now.
