Gus Hansen

Stud

Gus Hansen was just all in twice and doubled up both times. On the first one, he made jacks full of kings to beat Shaun Deeb's nines full of sixes. Both players held two pair going to seventh and filled up on the end.

On the next hand, Hansen was all in again on fifth street and won with a pair of threes to double up through Sebastian Ruthenberg. After both of the double ups, Hansen moved back to 255,000.

But...

Hansen dropped all the way back to 55,000 after losing another hand of Stuf shortly thereafter. It's been quite a rollercoaster of a day for him.
