Gus Hansen to serve as "Face of Full Tilt Poker" - Page 2 - Poker News Headlines

Full Tilt is surprisingly LAME as of late at the low stakes ... I dont give a **** whose "face" i see!!! id like to see some more unknown faces at the small stake games after midnight. on table of 6 max PLO between 4 different stakes?!?!? ZERO mixed games ever in progress!! Lets get this site back to where it was before Man Tits Lederer Took everyone for goons!!

and im sick of seeing Tom Dwan's smug ass face!! hes a little punk!! and over rated!! OBV a much better player then myself, but as a huge fan of Poker, i find him to be a poor ambassador for the game!!! Gus is a much better choice to take the lead in FTP!!!

You know less about simple math than you do simple grammar.

One of my favorite Full Tilt Pro's new/old was Alan Boston. He would only sit at .25/.50 but was extremely interactive with the players. He once helped me win a NCAA pool by basically giving me picks every day in chat. He is truly a "character" in the poker world. Since he appeared on Poker after Dark I always found him extremely neurotic yet fascinating.

It's kind of ironic that one of, if not the, biggest loser on the site is a sponsored pro. But if a face helps sell then it helps sell

Are you kidding?

I don't care what anybody has to say, those LIFETIME numbers say it all. And the fact that he is a sponsored pro on there is a joke that speaks volumes about marketing/branding. Imo, Hansen should be duking it out in uNL before he blows whatever he has left

12 million dollars since 2007. He isn't sponsored for his ability to play. He belongs in the micros.

I seem to remember Gus answering observer chat back before black friday when he was on his epic heater that he sold his share of a poker website for 10 million. He's gotta be getting close to broke.

why does he continue to get pounded in the nosebleed games? Why doesn't he move down and try to improve his play?
