Minh Nguyen busto....asking for (and receiving $200). Yet another of the name pros with almost $2MM in liftime earnings.

Exchange heard between Helmuth at TJ Cloutier just before close of Event #28 last night:

TJ: Hey Phil, congrats on another FT and your bracelet.
PH: Thanks. So, I'm thinking you need a little $$.
TJ: Well, yeah how much?
PH: (pulls out cash and hands $500)
TJ: (pauses)
PH: Not enough?
TJ: Well, no.
PH: (reaches for more cash, finds $400) Last time I gave you all the $$ in my pocket I didn't have enough for a massage, so I'm keeping some.

< 1 hour later, TJ spotted at craps table near you. With $2,500 in chips. ROBUSTO! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'll take action that right now (9:00am CST), busto [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
