Is Gus Hansen playing any events at the WSOP?
 

He's been conspicuously absent from the events so far. Makes you wonder about those stories about him skipping town because of debts. Anyone spotted him in Vegas these last days?

haven't seen him down there yet - but i don't know about that other stuff you're talking about.

I don't want to be starting rumours or anything, since I have no way of knowing, but a month or two ago there were threads about him having gone back to Europe because of gambling debts.

Apparently speculation is not allowed on this forum anymore. I expect a deletion soon.

I'll perpetuate the rumor.

I heard that Gus Hansen is stuck for a lot of cash. Apparently, he either doesn't want to pay or can't pay.

I think the fact that one of the most talented and well known tournament pros is conspicuously absent from the "mother of all poker tournaments" is enough to prompt further speculation.

i think it's odd he was spotted playing online though - if he's avoiding people he owes money to (alegedly) - why play poker online and piss them off even more?

Probably because he is in Monte Carlo and doesn't give a
*%$#.

That would be seriously bad news for the WPT, seeing how Gus is their poster boy. Hard to believe though that he couldn't find someone to stake him for just the WSOP NLHE tourneys if nothing else, based on his track record as a NLHE tournament player.
