Gus "The Great Dane" Hansen has won millions of dollars during his poker career. He has won all these money from playing the biggest tournaments and at the highest cash game tables (both online and live) there are, against the best poker players in the world. Gus Hansen's poker career has been great with other words. But as we all know, playing at the highest stakes is not always a bunch of roses.

Gus Hansen has really got to experience it this year as his bankroll has decreased with around 2.9 million US dollars. But even though he has lost so much money this year, the most people following his poker career are certain that he will start winning soon again. It's just a matter of time according to them. It's hard to disagree with them as this is not the first time he has lost big amounts of money.

The more interesting thing is that he was near $3M up at the end of the firs trimester, which makes it a -$5M downswing.


That is interesting, 5 million downswing :O

About the tennis bet, I would have bet on Rafal Nadal too!

The odds were not profitable, so why would u bet on it at all?
I don't even understand how someone with his knowledge, can bet on such a crap win to lose ratio. Confused

What were the odds? I just knew Rafal Nadal was a big favourite cause he never lost in like 5 years at the French open.

i'm sure he'll bounce back in near future and win back all the money he lost like he did earlier. maybe he can take a break for some time, that'll help him
 najs26/09/2009 21:22:22 GMT
that's high time to start making not loosing money.

He's a great player and everything depends on his strategy. He must change somthing in his current game
 xxxbchxxx27/09/2009 10:17:15 GMT
Ouch thats got to hurt i bet he's feeling the pinch.
Resession or not thats some serious cash.

:O what amount of money...
 Hroros04/10/2009 21:10:59 GMT
I wonder how much he lost on rake over the years
 Lutenatik05/10/2009 01:27:43 GMT
I saw him playing today at FTP HU against Phil Ivey and things weren't going very well Tongue

------------
It's sad cuz i really like to watch him playing. He's definetly a good player just going through a looonnng down swing i guess
 Y2k8705/10/2009 02:41:05 GMT
theres a vid on youtube where he talks about his downswing but he says since hes been in australia hes got nearly all of the 3mil back he has lost over the last couple of months
 Fakiry07/10/2009 12:32:22 GMT
This mark can't be something Gus is proud of, but i am sure he will make to turn things up again. The real good players are like the cats: they always land with head up!
 NANACONDA23/10/2009 11:41:09 GMT
I'd nearly go as far as to say that he's past it at this stage. He's not able to keep up with durrr ivey and the likes and He's certainly nowhere near as good as Patrik Antonius. I think his egos got the better of him and don't think he'll have a profitable year for a long while yet if ever again.
 MANUEDO23/10/2009 12:09:22 GMT
Mamma miaaaa
How can you stay calm and relaxed after so huge loss ?
Unbelieveble
