if you get the chance tell Mel just to play HER game. She will be able to grind it all back

Bushy clashes with Gus.

Early pos R to 200, Gary got 99 & just CALLS.

Hansen then makes it..... 2,800....!

Gary says he was CERTAIN that Hansen did not have a big hand - Hansen too good to bet so much. Bushy puts Hansen or AJ or 88.

Bushy bravely moves ALL-In, & puts his whole tourney on the line, trusting his judgement.

Hansen calls, and turns over..... 8-8.!

No drama - Bushy doubles through. Good Man!

This is just about what Carlo predicted would happen eventually.
