Default Gus Hansen joins full tilt poker

Dunno .. just seen it on their website ... wonder just how much these full tilt guys make ... wonder if they get a salary every 2 weeks or just free entries to tourneys. I'm suprised it took this long for someone to snag him he's one of the best known players ...

He started his own site which bombed... that's probably why he has been off the market. I'm sure Gus is being well taken care of. I don't think it's an exclusive deal though, I saw him on UB last night; unless he's cheating on the wife.

To keep that analogy going they have nothing to show for it...tho this isn't a baseball debate..they yankees probably don't get enough ROI...full tilt still doesn't have as much action as I'd like it to be. tho third isn't bad.

It's true. Fulltilt has the best spokespeople and best publicity (all the pros walking around with FT gear), but I really don't like the interface and apparently other people don't either, as shown by their low numbers.
