Default Re: Gus and Danny\'s set over set

First of all, we all know that DN is somewhat of a calling station. Furthermore there is no doubt that Gus is capable of bluff-raising the river and that he will do that at a certain percentage. Last but not least DN was aware that he was about to run into a somewhat insane bad beat and was prepared to pay off the 1-outer. There is certainly a cutoff to everything, but with that much money in the pot, not paying off a 1-outer on the end would probably have required a re-raise of something like 5 million on Gus' part, probably even more.

That hand was a cold deck all the way and well played from both sides. I give Gus huge credit for checking the river.
