Little did we know back then,
It was fake money they were playing with,
to make Full Tilt Poker look like the place the cool kids hung out.
Actually, it was even better than fake money, they paid you millions to play with it.
What a great life they had back then .....
Money for nothing, and the Chicks for free

Of course you are right but guys total losses come from swathes of multi accounts, it is only once you start adding them together they surpass gus's account. We wouldn't want to drag guy through the mud with that though of course.

Lol. I wouldn't be surprised if he was less than 100x richer than Gus.. (Guy's net worth is $2bn according to Forbes)
Year in year out people here claim "Gus is broke", "he quit poker" and other random stuff. Still, he's at Vegas every summer, plays for the highest stakes and keeps to enjoy life like very little other people do.
I doubt there's many people who have seen him over the last maybe 10 years who didn't get the impression he was a baller and have crazy stories about him.

pretty sure he is up quite a bit money overall in his life, its not really dragging him through any mud pointing out he did lose at one particular recreational aspect of his life which is online poker. Same goes for Gus, expecting him to still do pretty well in his life.

Re: Does Gus Hansen even play poker anymore?
guy is a fkcin boss, we should never be bashing him, he has done a sht load for poker!
and so has gus so lets keep both their names clean
all these players who are big winners take and never give back
then we bash the players who losers but promote the game, donate to charities, and keep the games running.. makes no sense to me

Re: Does Gus Hansen even play poker anymore?
Wow Thomas Keller is a name I havnt heard in a long time. Is he just a live player now, he used to be a high stakes limit player way back in the day if I remember correctly.

That was counting the overinflated valuation of his stake in FTP. Guess what that's worth now?
