Gus Hansen Plays Against Benyamine and CryMeARiver8
Gus Hansen played in a $1000/$2000 Limit Omaha Hi/Lo game against David Benyamine and CryMeARiver8. When I started observing he had $59.4k while David Benyamine had $106.2k and CryMeARiver8 had $17.5 in money at the table. Gus Hansen did something that was a simple strategy but I haven’t seen many people pro’s or any players for that matter do it. He left the table with $59.4k and came back with $20k. That means he cashed in $29.4k and kept playing which limited his losses at the table. After a bit of time Qrippoli sat down and joined the game and bought in for 20k.
Gus Hansen was multi-tabling during the session and was also playing in two $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi games. When I checked he had 12k and 8k at the other tables. In both of the games he was playing six handed. In one of the Omaha Hi tables both David Benyamine and CryMeARiver8 were also sitting at the table.
He bought in twice more at the $1000/$2000 but did quite well at the other tables. At the time of this post he has $22k and $47k.
