Gus Hansen - The Comeback?
What a difference six months make. On September 1st of last
year, I wrote the blog Gus Hansen - Maybe It's Time to
Retire. That blog was written after it was revealed that
since 2007, Hansen had lost over $9. 23 million on Full Tilt
Poker[http://www.

Top 10 Moments in Poker for 2010 - Part 2
In yesterday's blog, I started counting down my list of the
Top 10 Poker Moments of 2010 by giving you #10 through
#6. Â Today, I will give you the my top five moments. *#5 - Phil Ivey Wins 8th Bracelet*
*
**

Many of you would figure that Ivey's 8th bracelet win would
be the #1 moment in poker for me this year, but I expect him
to win every year, so this was not a surprise. Â However,
the way he came back against Bill Chen was definitely news
worthy.

Put Retirement Talk on Hold - Gus Hansen Wins First Bracelet
Recently, I wrote an article about Gus Hansen and whether it
was time for him to retire. Well, I guess we can hold off the retirement plans for a
while as Hansen just delivered a healthy helping of "Fuck
you compncards" by winning the £10,350 No-Limit Hold'em
High Roller Heads-Up at the World Series of Poker Europe. Hansen navigated his way through a field of 103 players to
finally make it heads-up with Jim Collopy. The final match
was tied up 1-1 when play was paused until today to allow
for the players to play in the Main Event.

Gus Hansen - Maybe It's Time to Retire
Back in the day, Gus Hansenâs seemingly reckless style
of play was winning him WPT titles and Hansen was considered
one of the best poker players on the planet. I put that as a
big was after some of the astonishing numbers that were
recently published about him. For the month of August, Hansen has lost $2. 85 Million on
Full Tilt Poker.

Poker Bots: Giving Them a Taste of Their Own Medicine
At first they were only spotted sporadically in the shadier
corners of Macau, but lately they have become common even in
Las Vegas. Iâm talking, of course, about poker bots
â mechanical monsters who roam casinos around the world
disguised as ordinary poker players. They can read minds,
calculate exact odds and thrive on pain and bad beats. Early poker bots were fairly easy to spot â you could
identify them by looking for extra legs and antennas
protruding from their armpits.

Gus Hansen Giving Away Money Again
Lately, I have been "covering" some online high stakes poker
games online. (Covering meaning I let them run in the
background and I go back and pull the interesting hands from
hand history. ) I almost feel bad for Gus Hansen in a way, or
at least I did this past week. Most of the time that I was
looking over hand histories, he was losing buy-in after
buy-in.

WSOP 40K Event Kicks Off
Today is the day when most people consider that the WSOP
truly begins. The $40,000 NL Holdem Event kicked off today
to celebrate 40 years of the World Series of Poker. Two
highly noticeable players that did not play in todayâs
event were Gus Hansen and Allen Cunningham. A lot of players are surprised at the fact that neither
player showed up to play in the event.
