What an amazing final of the High Roller Heads-up championship event in London! After a nearly 8 hour long battle on Thursday night, the tournament crew called it a day and the tournament went on a break for 2 days. Yesterday, Gus Hansen and Jim Collopy once again sat down at the poker table, this time in order to play the last of the 3 heads-up matches so a winner could be crowned. After about 3 hours of play, it was "The Great Dane" who had all the chips on his side of the table after winning all in with full house (deuces full of jacks) vs Collopy's three of a kind (ace kicker). For the win Gus Hansen received nothing less than $451,880 and his very first WSOP bracelet. A big congratulations to Gus Hansen!

Congratulations. He finally made it, now at least someone will respect him for some time - until he goes to high stakes and lose 2x his win in one session Smile

maybe his recent poor form gave him edge in this tourney,
spur him on to still prove to others that he is a great player,
he proved his doubters wrong, nice win GUS even thou you will never read my comments Smile

Congratulatios to Hansen, and he should stick to tourney play

Congratulations Gus Hansen, he deserved it, he is a solid poker player and has alot of patience. Patience is a good virtue. He is sometimes a loose, aggressive poker player. Smile

After all the losses, well its about time to make some money. Good work and its not a simple one i might add. I hope that he recovers more of his losses and not lose this chunk of money that he won right away.

I feel happy for Gus, honestly i know all the top pros act to him like he is the big fish, like what they do with Hellmuth. The problems with Gus is that he is really nice guy and the other pros look at that like a weak point.

He is good player and its good to watch him playing.
