It looks like even the best pros can make the same mistakes as us regular guys guys. Like being too aggressive with pocket pairs pre-flop

He didn't fair any good at the Omaha 8 table, he was owning Patrik for a while, but didn't then Zigmund sat down, beat him a bit and left and then Gus started getting shortstacked almost 4:1 against Patrik and then Tilt shut down, at least from what I saw, had the table open but was playing my own game at the time too.

man he can lose some very large pots. must be nice to be able to drop $120,000, then add almost $50,000 right back.

Gus is a hoot to watch. I've seen him play much more questionable hands than that above. The funny thing is he hits them from time to time and there is fireworks.

Playing with trash cards and raising is tough. He ends up more time than not getting called. If you let him limp with his junk he usually punishes his oposition.
