Hanson Takes a Power Nap and Folds

Hold'em

David Bach raised the button and John Hanson called in the big blind.

The flop was {3-Clubs}

and Hanson checked to Bach, who fired a bet. Hanson then check-raised, but Bach wasn't fazed as he put in another raise. Hanson made the call.

The turn brought an innocent looking {2-Hearts}

and both players checked.

The river was the {Q-Clubs}

and Hanson checked to Bach, who thought for a moment before committing a bet. Hanson tanked for a long time. Many of us thought he'd fallen asleep and wondered whether we should prod him with a stick. In the end, he folded and Bach won a nice pot.
