Former Chip Leader Fading

Casper Hansen
Casper Hansen
Casper Hansen, who started the day as the overall chip leader (163,400), currently finds himself one of his table's short stacks and can't seem to put anything together.

In a recent hand, Hansen opened the pot with a raise to 6,200 from early position and Michel Abecassis made the call.

The flop came {2-Spades} {3-Hearts} {8-Hearts} and Hansen fired a continuation bet of 8,500. Michel made the call and saw the {7-Clubs} fall on the turn.

Hansen fired again, this time making it 19,500 to go and Michel asked him how much he had left. "45,000 or so" replied Hansen and apparently Abecassis liked the answer as he announced "All in."

Hansen tossed his cards into the muck before Abecassis was even able to move his chips across the betting line and let out a frustrated sigh as he looked down at the 45,000 he has left.
