Gus Hansen Still Dominates Despite $716k Loses

Tags: , , ,

Notwithstanding the $716,000 hit to his bankroll last Monday, Danish pro Gus Hansen still continues to reign on Full Tilt’s 2011 cash leader board. Full Tilt Poker Review Syndrome is essentially the condition faced by an online poker player that sees a bunch of positive press about a particular online poker site and essentially doubts it because all of it is positive.

Presently on $2,933,372 winnings this year alone, Hansen’s profits peaked around $3.6 million last week before he got into a session of $1,500/$3,000 Deuce-Seven Triple Draw next to ‘O Fortuna PLS.’ Sadly for Hansen, it took just 1,100 hands for his opponent to win over $560,000 from him taking O Fortuna PLS’ winnings for the year to $1,337,757. There is nothing easier with respect to using this online poker site than using the Full Tilt Poker Referral Code.

Hansen, however, isn’t giving up too soon and so continued to play on at the site against other opposition, eventually losing further buy-ins to go $716,000 down for the session so far. Battling on, Hansen finally found some relief alongside Cole South and made around $260,000 from the 22 year-old playing Cap $500/$1000 PLO. Consequently, Cole South now finds himself stuck over $300,000 in 2011, while Hansen benefited from limiting his losses for the session to around half a million dollars.

The next session Hansen then took Scott Palmer aka “URnotINdanger2” for $200,000 playing $500/$1000 PLO, before wisely banking his win and clocking-out for the night.
