I don't want to start a rumor or anything, but I heard that Elvis is in Monte Carlo,

You're wrong -- I've been told by a Very Reliable source that Elvis is back in Vegas and that he's going to be playing Negraneau heads up. Elvis chose "Indian Poker" as the game for them to play.

Negraneau said that since he hasn't played this game since he was 4, Elvis will probably be a big favorite, but a deal's a deal.

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.

Doubt it. Some people, pros even, won't play Indian poker. They can't handle the swings.

This is probably a bs rumor. More like he likes to lose alot more than that on a regualr basis so its not worth his time to ionly lose 1k or 2k in an event. When he can lose hundreds of thousands or millions elswhere. You will see him for the bigger events i'm sure.

Uh, did you read the part of this thread where he is playing $100-200?

[Smoothcall]

no i didn't.

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.

I'm pretty sure the WPT would survive w/o Gus Hansen.

I'm not sure why you would call his absence "conspicuous". He only played the main event last year.

ummmm...hello people??!?!?!
Memphis resident and Elvis-sighter here.

Elvis was in Memphis as of a FEW HOURS AGO.
I saw him. He was singing Blue Suede Shoes on Beale Street.

If he's trying to woo Gus to the WSOP he's doing it over the phone.

I think Elvis is too tight as a poker player. Afterall he is the King of Rock.

/me runs and hides.
