Summary: 5 Stars
I was waiting for a book like this! Extremely entertaining and gives a lot of insight to Gus's mind. If you have the tourney recorded, you can actually see the hands, and look for tells that Gus is talking about. It really gives you an idea what a "maniac" is thinking about raising with T9o when "under the gun".
DO NOT TRY TO USE HIS STRATEGY AT HOME, unless you are above intermediate level poker player. Even if you think you understand why what he does at the table at home, you HAVE to be Gus Hansen to make it work. You are not. I hear people saying "a very aggressive player, like Gus Hansen, D.Negreanu, Micheal Mizrachi, etc". The truth is, you cannot put players in the same "aggressive" category. For example, D.Negreanu and G. Hansen are TOTALLY different players with different styles. Negreanu plays "small ball, check-call poker" preferring to make post flop decisions himself using his insane reading ability, while Gus likes to play bigger pots, and put his opponents to the test. Gus does not mind going all in when he thinks the situation is favorable, while Daniel hates to be all-in unless it is the best play. It is just not his style.
With that said, the most important thing why Gus's plays work is the table image (that he does not have to establish every time he comes to a new table, his image follows him everywhere). Thats his advantage, and thats why his plays work. Everyone knows that Gus Hansen is Gus "I-can-have-any-two-cards-in-any-position" Hansen. Thats why if you raised early position with two red aces, and Gus called you on the button, it is extremely difficult to proceed on the flop of 3-6-7 with two clubs on the board when Gus puts you to the test for all your chips. After all he is Gus, what makes you think he is not holding 4-5 in his hand, and you are drawing slim to dead.
Get this book! Read it! Enjoy it! Learn from it! DO NOT DO IT AT HOME!
