Gus "higher levels of thinking"

[yakhillclimb]

I don't understand how Daniel N and other players say Gus is a brilliant mind, making complex mathematical decisions in his poker. This sh!t just don't seem right.

On 'higher levels of thinking'. Let's imagine for a moment Gus really was just a high stakes fish, slowly spewing away his millions from donkament wins in the cash games. Would we expect Daniel N and others to then refer to him as some random donator, or as a brilliant mind capable of making tough decisions that really seem counterintuitive at a superficial glance.

[yakhillclimb]

True. But they could remain silent, as opposed to spew bullsh!t about how he's a deep, mathematical thinker. I think he's just a degen that has access to mass cash.

Gus is a gigolo. He makes millions per year sleeping with wealthy older women and donks some of it off at the poker tables.
