I think the fact that Danny is getting over 3:1 and Gus knows he knows that, should make for a more obvious fold. Really... maybe Gus makes this move with 65, but that's it. Does he have the case 6 25% of the time... don't think so.

Why would he make this move with 65, but not 85 or 95?

65 is more realistic considering the action.

Of all the classic "hands" we've seen on HSP, this one has to be #1 on the list.

Gus' check on the river was brilliant.

Actually, I think that was by far the worst action that Gus took in the whole hand.

How do you figure it was so brilliant?

I just think if Gus didn't check on the river, he wouldn't have made as much off of Daniel that he did. If Gus bet $65k on the river, Daniel would just call. He knew Daniel would bet his full house on the river.

I saw Gus do the same move against Johnny Chan in Poker Superstars I when they were heads up - Gus had A-7 and a full house when all the cards came down. Gus checked on the river and Johnny bet nearly 85% of his stack and Gus went all in and Johnny had no choice but to call. (okay not exactly the same scenario as the Gus/Daniel hand but on both occasions Gus checked the river with the nuts knowing he would get his opponent to bet on the river).

I already went through this in the other thread. Name one hand that Daniel calls a river bet with, but would check behind if checked to, with a $100K+ pot on a 9 6 5 8 5 board? Seriously, name one.

(Forgot the quote)

But yeah, an overpair. He would call a river bet with Aces or Jacks, but would check behind if Gus checked.
