Hansen Sigh Calls Weisner Shove to Double

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

With 37,000 in the middle on a flop of 8?6?5?, Melanie Weisner announced all in from the big blind to put Todd Hansen at risk in middle position for 55,000. Hansen looked at his cards again and exhaled cautiously "I guess I call."

Todd Hansen: J?J?
Melanie Weisner: Q?5?

Hansen was ahead with the over-pair, but had to dodge a ton of outs as Weisner had a pair of fives and a flush draw. The run out was safe for Hansen as the 10?K? completed the board and a much-needed double-up close to the bubble.
