POKER INFO - PROILE - Gus Hansen

I live in Vegas and play at alot of the different casinos. My friend and I were actually told by two dealers that Gus owed markers here in Vegas exceeding $2 million. They said he was in Monte Carlo trying to earn it to come back and settle. I have heard this rumor quite a bit, but have never heard it was Doyle. I think that part is conjecture. I have played up at WSOP and its true he hasnt played an event yet, but I hope he will be at the WSOP. Altough regardless of how great you are, with that large of a field it is up to the poker gods. You can only control the decisions so far before the cards determine our futures. A good example would be MoneyMakers misread that he had the best hand(3Queens w/ A kicker) in 2003 series against Phil Ivey (9s full of Queens)and hit his ace on the river. Or his pocket 88s later on which were all in against Pocket Rockets and he hit his set on the flop. He clearly was not the favor preflop, but luck is so prevalent in a field of thousands, skill can only go so far.
