Bullshiat he is best at playing the player. He is just lucky. Johnny Chan does a MUCH better job of reading a player. There's a reason why a lot of people who think Gus is lucky, and rightfully so. Sidenote: The only honor I would ever have by playing on Gus's table is when I call him on his 2-7 all in with my pocket Ks, so folks stop worshipping his arse. He's more lucky than good. Real players know that his aggressiveness is disguised by foolishness and incompetence.
