Hansen’s Fives Come Alive to Ensure Survival
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Lasse Hansen shoved for 300,000 from the hijack and Pawel Wojciechowski called in the cutoff.
Lasse Hansen: 5?5? 
Pawel Wojciechowski: A?Q?
Wojciechowski got off to a great start on the 9?Q?10? flop after he paired his queen, which prompted Hansen to get to his feet. However, he soon sat back down again on the 5? turn as he improved to an unbeatable set, which left Wojciechowski drawing dead. An 8? dropped on the river, and Hansen's stack grew to 660,000.
"Standing up is really working today," joked Wojciechowski.
