I'm surprised no one mentioned that Gus could just be a bad limit player, or possibly doesn't care that much about the stakes at $100/200.

I've read in High Stakes that Gus started out as a 33/17/4 and over a few months became a very tough 18/12/2.5 or something like that. I'm not going to hunt for a link though.

because that would be a very reasonable response, and ppl that talk about a pro's game based off of 1hand aren't reasonable

Well, I'm bored, so I did. It's here.

I can honestly say, without a doubt, that I will never be playing those stakes. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Why? Don't think you can pull off enough "near expert" plays? [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

4.) It keeps his opponents guessing. While it may be -EV to make this preflop call, it increases the expectation for the other hands he would play this way. Keep in mind his opponents are paying careful attention to his plays so mixing up his game is going to be critical.
