    After this hand two things are certain, Gus Hansen is the best omaha player on Full Tilt and I'm proud to be danish:

    Full Tilt Poker Game #1209787043: Table Pantheon (6 max) - $200/$400 - Pot Limit Omaha - 15:40:08 ET - 2006/11/07

    Seat 2: Gus Hansen ($71,583)

    Seat 3: CrazyZachary ($40,790.50)

    Seat 5: David Benyamine ($37,595)

    CrazyZachary posts the small blind of $200

    David Benyamine posts the big blind of $400

    The button is in seat #2

    *** HOLE CARDS ***

    Gus Hansen raises to $1,400

    CrazyZachary folds

    David Benyamine calls $1,000

    *** FLOP *** [Js 6h 2d]

    David Benyamine bets $2,400

    Gus Hansen raises to $10,200

    David Benyamine raises to $33,600

    Gus Hansen raises to $70,183, and is all in

    David Benyamine calls $2,595, and is all in

    Gus Hansen shows [Qs 9d Jh 8s]

    David Benyamine shows [9s Ts 5c Jd]

    Uncalled bet of $33,988 returned to Gus Hansen

    *** TURN *** [Js 6h 2d] [Tc]

    *** RIVER *** [Js 6h 2d Tc] [Kh]

    Gus Hansen shows a straight, King high

    David Benyamine shows two pair, Jacks and Tens

    Gus Hansen wins the pot ($75,389) with a straight, King high

    Gus Hansen: NOOO

    David Benyamine is sitting out

    *** SUMMARY ***

    Total pot $75,390 | Rake $1

    Board: [Js 6h 2d Tc Kh]

    Seat 2: Gus Hansen (button) showed [Qs 9d Jh 8s] and won ($75,389) with a straight, King high

    Seat 3: CrazyZachary (small blind) folded before the Flop

    Seat 5: David Benyamine (big blind) showed [9s Ts 5c Jd] and lost with two pair, Jacks and Tens

    and wow that man has cojones calling with top pair and no apparent draw and check out his comment on the hand: Gus Hansen: JUST GAMBLING

    after that he took about 60k more from benyamine and is now sitting with 180k, nice

    He should write a book: "Betting or Raising the Pot at Every Opportunity in PLO Regardless of Your Hand Strength"

    Unless I am missreading the hands, gus actually had a better hand than david when the money went in. Both had backdoor spade draws (Gus had Q high to David's T high, both had some sort of resemblance of backdoor straight draws, and Gus had a better kicker with his J. Is this really how PLO is played at the highest limits? DAMN

    aba20 has talked a ton about how he feels like he can make more money playing PLO, but the swings are sick cuz it's hard to get your money in better than a 60% favorite...

    I think PLO is probably a better game for Gus than NHL. It is such a mathematical game that he probably has an edge on most people from that alone.
