'Claro que não te estou a acusar de fazer batota' - Gus Hansen vs SallyWoo
Gus Hansen é um dos jogadores de poker mais conhecidos do mundo. É um gambler, é um high staker e é também um dos maiores perdedores do ano com cerca de oito milhões de dólares negativos em 2013. 'SallyWoo' é um jogador americano residente no México que nos últimos dias somou $300k em Limit Hold'em e Omaha HiLo. O table chat de uma mesa destes dois aqueceu..
A conversa chamou à atenção no Fórum HighStakesDB, onde um membro colou a conversa dizendo: 'Gus Hansen disse o que eu pensava'. Nessa conversa, Gus Hansen insinua que SallyWoo poderá estar a fazer batota recorrendo ao auxílio de um programa O8. Lendo um pouco mais o referido tópico, conseguimos compreender que este será um software que permite aos jogadores jogar Omaha hi/low (8-or-better) de forma optimizada. Logo se levantaram algumas vozes que afirmam que este não é um jogo resolvido e como tal o programa não servirá de muito.
Relativamente a SallyWoo, sabe-se que pertence a um grupo de 3 jogadores onde estão incluídos KPR16 e cottonseed1 e que os três são bastante discretos e estranhos, escondendo os seus resultados online e não jogando uns contra os outros por serem "amigos". Outra das coisas que incomoda alguns jogadores mais atentos é o gráfico de cottonseed1 que é sempre a subir, sem uma única downsing e que foi escondido porque o jogador ficou paranóico com o que os outros poderiam pensar por este não ser um gráfico normal podendo levar a acusações de batota.
A discussão começou algures entre uma 3bet quando Hansen perdeu a ligação ou quando Sally encerrou uma mesa (podem ler a conversa original em baixo).
Agora, no 2+2, a conversa é notícia entre os membros: enquanto uns defendem Gus Hansen, outros criticam as suas acusações sem fundamento. Muitos acusam o dinamarquês de estar em tilt com os seus oito milhões negativos e disparar em todas as direcções.
Tiltting much?
