Default How Often Does Gus Hansen Play?

Does he play in lower buy-in like 5000 and less tournaments? I imagine most of the poker pros do. Also does anyone know how much time he spends in America compared to Denmark? Does he just play poker there and come to America for large tournaments? Is there even much poker to be had in Denmark, does he still play backgammon? What is the scoop, what is he doing.

He didn't make any place, but it means nothing as tourneys (similar to poker) are crapshoots. For sure he is much better than actual world champ.

I saw him taking many thousands euros from side games.

One against one, $X per point (times the cube). Gammons and backgammons count only when the cube was turned.

I think somebody is growing tired of a certain 15 yr. old girl and now has a crush on Gussy Wussy...

I think it's cute...our little E is growing up and his interests are changing from jailbait to guys who look like they could be the villain in the next Jean Claude Van Dam movie...
