"That is Usually a Good Sign"

Level 17 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Haralabos Voulgaris opened for 58,000 from middle position and received a call from Gus Hansen on the button. Vivek Rajkumar came along from the big blind and three players saw a flop of {3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{q-Hearts}.

Rajkumar checked, Voulgaris continued for 78,000 and Hansen raised to 182,000. Rajkumar got out of the way and Voulgaris took his time before announcing that he was all in for 463,000 more. Hansen seemed perplexed and said as much.

"I'm confused," he admitted. "That's usually a good sign."

The weight of the decision was visible on Hansen's face, and he thought for over three minutes before dropping in a call with the {q-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. "Any paint will do," Hansen said upon discovering Voulgaris held the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}, though a jack wouldn't do him any good.

The {3-Spades} turn paired the board and actually took away more than half of Hansen's outs as a king would no longer be good. That meant he needed a third queen on the river, but it wasn't in the cards as the {6-Spades} peeled off.
