Gus Hansen Makes Surprise Return to Poker at WPT Meet-Up Game
Gus Hansen made an unexpected appearance at a fans meet-up game in the run up to the WPT World Championship. The Premier Meet-Up Game was a great success last year and there seemed no better way to kick off the highly-anticipated WPT World Championship series.
Gus Hansen is a candidate for the most popular poker player during the boom years. He is known for his outrageously aggressive playing style. Phil Ivey and poker vloggers Brad Owen and Andrew Neeme were also taking part.
Adam Pliska, WPT CEO, said: “Gus is one of the original superstars of the World Poker Tour and holds a special place in WPT lore as the first ever WPT Champion.” Andrew Neeme added: “We’re pumped to bring the Premier MUG back to the World Championship stage with players from all different countries present.” The stakes of only $1/$3 and $2/$5 were perfect for allowing everyone who had the chance to be able to play.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
