lol thats funny considering cause gus said durrrr was stupid in a plo tourney at the wsop europe for calling with rags in a 3 way all in for there tourey livs.

He never called, he raised and 'the best plo player in the world' comment and the critisism for playing rags were in the same sentence.

Are you really sure about that? There was a hand in this years wsop in the 10k mixed event where Gus and durrrr got into a little bit of an argument. But durrr had a one gap hand against two opponents who figured to have big pairs and he just made sure he got all of his money in the pot to get himself a chance of tripeling up. And there was just 16 minutes left of the day so he either got some chips for the next day or go bust and could focus on a new event the next day.

You can read the pokernews update on that hand here, third post from the top:

Durr had EXACTLY 33% chance to win that all in pot.

Learn some Omaha, or just don't be lazy and type the hands into a calculator before trying to make comments about his play

The Gus statement was definitely not a cynical criticism of Durrrr, it was almost certainly a backhanded compliment. He was indeed slating him for making that play with rags but offered the "best PLO player in the world" comment as if to say "I know you're a great PLO player so wtf are you doing playing this hand?"

With the original raise, gus calling and the blinds in the pot it would be like 2.3-2.4 to 1 for him - so the call is by far justified. But then, as stated previous, because it was just before they would call it the day he elected to shove. If you are looking for a spot to triple up, a rundown hand against two big pairs is about the best spot you could find.

In my mind, Gus makes the worst play in that hand. When durrrr shoves and the original raiser reraises his pair of kings should have hit the muck imo. But Gus is not known for his huge laydowns.
