Thor Hammers His Opponent

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Thor Hansen was just all in and at risk of elimination, but his {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} prevailed against the {8-Diamonds}{8-} of his opponent. By the river the board read {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{a-Clubs} doubling Hansen up.

"I'm not going home yet!" said Hansen as he helped himself to the near 70,000 chip pot.
