Hagen the Hero
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
The action was picked up on this huge hand as Augusto Hagen and Fernando Favadniak Souza were on the river with a board that read 7♦3♣6♣8♠10♠ with close to 1,600,000 in the middle.
Augusto Hagen had checked to Souza, who then moved all in to cover, and Hagen faced a tough decision. After over a minute of intense thought, he slid out a stack to call for his tournament life and was instantly rewarded as Souza let out a deep sigh and flipped over K♦Q♣ for just king-high!
"Yes!" Hagen shouted as he emphatically tabled A♣6♠ for just a pair of sixes to take down the massive pot for the double.
