nice wins for both Ivey and Gus Hansen, been good year for both of them. and nothing seems to be going right for jungleman this year, he cant stop losing. but im sure he'll be back to winning ways soon
Phil Ivey is one person you dont really see lose, other pros just throw money at him. Its funny to see how much money is in poker today when everything is going up in price.

Phil Ivey never had a real downswing on Full Tilt while in real life he often has lost some time and big cash at cash games......Full Tilt wants him to keep winning because thats good advertising for poker so people think you can get that good that you almost never loose..He just has one straight line up to almost 20 mil profit on FTP...yeah right....BS scam

Looks like Gus is still far from outstanding the debt he has from 2010, but if he continues to win about $1,5 million per month, i think he will manage to achieve it very fast.
