Hansen Can't Get There

Gus Hansen raised to 22,000 from the button before Tony Bloom reraised the pot. Hansen then reraised the pot and Bloom snapped all in.

Bloom: {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts}
Hansen: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}

"I don't ask for much in life, but I would like one spade on the flop," said Hansen.

The flop came down {A-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {6-Hearts} and Hansen got his wish for one spade. There was also a heart on board.

The turn card added the {8-Spades} to the board and put a big smile from ear to ear on Hansen's face.

The river card was a black one, but it was also a king, meaning it could only be the {K-Clubs}. The two players chopped up the pot.
