Hansen's River Bet Gets Through

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

There was a raise to 9,000 in early position before Soeren Baekgaard Hansen three-bet 24,000 on the button. The action folded back around to the original raiser and he made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of A?9?5?, and both players checked to see the 7? turn.

The early position player checked once again, and Hansen fired out a bet of 18,000. The early position player took about 30 seconds before making the call.

The 9? fell on the river, and once checked to, Hansen fired again, this time for 40,000.

The early position player started talking aloud, "I almost didn't even call the 18,000 on the turn. I know you hit the ace, you almost jumped out of your chair."

Hasen nodded silently.

Eventually, Hansen's opponent folded, as he said, "Show the bluff, make me look dumb."

Hansen opted not to show as he pushed forward his cards and collected the pot.
