The dealer produced the 
on the turn and Gardenhire continued his aggression with a bet of 2,800. His opponent stayed the course, allowing the duo to see the 
grace the felt on the river. Gardenhire fired 3,000 only to have his opponent instantly come over the top for 15,000 total. Gardenhire flashed a smile while he sat riffling his chips.
"Do you have the ten of hearts in your hand?" Gardenhire asked his opponent. He received no reply.
