Wattel Busts Hanson

Omaha-8

A short-stacked John Hanson committed the remainder of his stack with {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} on a {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades} board, but was trailing the {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} of Mike Wattel who had flopped two pair with a 7-5 low.

The {2-Clubs} turn gave Wattel a wheel and the {3-Clubs} river officially gave him the pot, eliminating Hanson in the process.
