Great Dane in Trouble

Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen
A crowd is always swamped around Gus Hansen's table, but this time for good reason as the Great Dane was involved in a sizable pot and close to being all in for his tournament life.

With a player UTG making a standard preflop raise, Hansen and his neighbour called in the blinds leading to a three-way {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop.

After all players had checked, Hansen then flat-called a bet of 1,600 from the big blind on the {8-Spades} turn, before checking the {10-Diamonds} river. At this point, his opponent fired out 4,000, effectively putting Hansen all in if he were to call.

As his opponent remained as still as water, Hansen coolly mulled over his options, flicking a green 25 chip around the divots in his upper hand as the vultures in the media awaited the potential departure of the tournament's 'big star'.

But after a minute or two of thought, Hansen shook his head and made the fold, leaving himself with just 2,300 in chips. The Great Dane's alive, but only just.
