Masa Kagawa opened from middle position to 6,000 and when the action folded around to Gus Hansen, he bumped it to 20,000 out of the small blind. Kagawa thought for a little before the making the call.

With only 7,000 left, Hansen moved all his chips in the middle from the dark. The flop fell {A-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and Kagawa, facing the all-in bet from Hansen, eventually made the call and the cards were tabled.

Hansen: {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Kagawa: {J-Spades}{10-Spades}

Kagawa wasn't in great shape, needing a gut-shot queen or any jack or ten to take the lead. The {10-Clubs} fell on the turn, sending Hansen to his feet. With the {K-Diamonds} landing on the river, Hansen headed to the rail with a comment of, "Nice hand, Masa" from Phil Ivey as he returned from his penalty.
