EPT Grand Final - Monte Carlo: Day 1B - Interactive

[NoflopsHomer]

For those still interested in the 'how tall is Gus Hansen' debate, I just called in for back-up and Klaus at Martins Poker says Gus is probably 1 m 82 cm, which of course means nothing to me since I am an American.  He'd put money on the fact that Gus would indeed NOT need to stand on a box to pat Tom Cruise on the head.

The truth is out Mr Snoops! Gus is not a midget--sorry, little person--

p.s. to my fello Yanks, I Googled 1 m 82 cm and I think it's about 5'11"

Ridiculas, clealy Hansen has been greaseing the wheels, I've seen him at WSOP last year, he is a pixie.



P.S: Devilfish is a plonker.

I wouldn't go far as a pixie, but he's certainly in gnome territory.

I wouldn't mind seeing William Thorsson (35k) and Roberto Romanello (10.5k) clashing in a bit pot - the blunt stare and sharp comments of Thorsson bashing heads with the Romanello gift of the gab... would surely be a thorougly entertaining sight.

With blinds at 100 and 200 and a board of , Joe Beevers was faced with an all-in of what looked liked 7k (although it doesn't help when the 5k chips are the same colour as the felt) from his neighbour pictured nextdoor below.

Although he dwelled for a decent amount of time, including counting out his stack, Joe made the call and showed , which surprised one player who questioned why he took so long. "He could have Sevens, Fives," says Beevers understandably.

Anyhow, I don't need to tell you if the 4-5 was the best hand, just look at the second picture for a clue.

Good evening, sir.

I've been watching this tread from the start of play today, and I am impressed of the amount of chips the player "Mateyboy" have raked in. He must be close to 450k by now, with the average chipcount being 27k....

How are the remaining Norwegians doing anyway?

..... Michael Knight was right 'one man can make a difference'

My pointing out that Hansen is pixie sized has resulted in him getting a photo taken, which I might add, does not show his height relitive to anything other than a piece of paper with a random height written on it.

I'm not concvinced, I've seen the guy, he is pixie sized.
