A cool HSP hand from 2006ish

I was browsing around YouTube, checking out old poker videos, and I came across a hand between Daniel Negreanu and Gus Hansen from a few years ago on High Stakes Poker.

This is a sick hand, and Negreanu shows how amazing he is at reading opponents. While Hansen has sort of cooled off over the past couple years, Negreanu remains one of the top poker players in the world.

How many of you would realistically go into the tank with Negreanu’s hand? I’ve probably seen this clip 20 times and never get sick of it!

    Pmac, I’m on my morning break and I can’t resist opening up news from MNPOKERMAG. Yes, this HSP clip is pretty sick..! If I were Daniel I’d have to put Gus on pocket nines or definitely a QUADRU right after Gus went all in.

    This clip has brought back my memories that I’ve played and fold FullHouse twice at running Aces about 5 months ago against two opponents at a different tournies and each “BIG DOG” held Quadru nines and sevens against mine fullhouse. Yes, it was really sick.

    I agreed that Negreanu remains one of the top poker players in the world.
