Is it poker debt or something else?

He actually lost it trying to corner the orange juice futures market.

Gus ended up screwed when Greenstein and Giang tricked his corporate spy out of the secret info, and the dude ended up getting stuck in an ape suit, and shipped to Africa. If I remember right, Gus also lost his seat on the Stock Market, because he couldn't cover the margin call.

Haha..I saw that movie.

It would be nice if somebody posted some reliable information rather than passing along unsubstantiated rumors.

You are going to have to change your name from Dynasty to Diogenes if you are looking for anyone other than rumormongers around here.

The truth is out there. It just isn't very titillating.

Yeah, Doyle Brunson was interviewed by Cardplayer back in December about this, saying about Gus, "it ain't cool being no jive turkey so close to Thanksgiving."

In the recent interview with Cardplayer, Gus did admit to taking a beating at the Big Game, but said he would be back in Vegas for the WSOP ME.

On this subject, I don't really see any possibility of any credible source posting reliable information, so I guess unsubstantiated rumors is all there is.

Well if CardPlayers chat was actually with Gus then I'd say that's as relaible as it gets. That is if Gus was being truthful. I'm fairly gullible so I believed him. He said he took a beating but didn't go broke.
