    Icon1 Gus Hansen Going Broke? + Pro Updates

    Gus Hansen Broke:
    Have just read that Gus has lost all his earnings this year ($3.2 million) in just over half a month which begs the question how long can he keep this up before Gus Hansen goes Broke?:

    In a relatively quiet week on Full Tilt Poker, Gus Hansen is the centre of attention thanks to his matches mainly against the Dang brothers and David Benyamine. As was reported earlier, it wasn't the best of weeks for the Dane and he ended up losing -$1.76 million in a 8 day spell from April 13 to 20.

    This means that Gus has now lost -$3.3 million in April and all of is previous wins this year ($3.2 million from January 1 to March 31) have gone down the drain.

    On Monday it was almost another horror story when Gus was playing Hac "trex313" Dang and was down -$900k at one point, but he recovered to a more reasonable -$475k.

    The Dang brothers were the biggest winners of the week with Urindanger winning $752k and trex313 $625k. Another nemesis of Gus, David "MR B 2 U SON" Benyamine was third with $202k.

    Behind Gus, Phil "OMGClayAiken" Galfond lost -$557k and Sami "LarsLuzak" Kelopuro -$196k. Ziigmund played less than usual and had to settle for a loss of -$113k.

    Looking at the whole year, Patrik Antonius is on top with a huge profit of $4.1 million, second is trex313 with $3.37 million. Mark Vos is still in third place with $1.88 million. Ziigmund is up $829k.

    After Urindanger's recovery LarsLuzak is now deepest in red with -$1.4 million. Urindanger is still down by -$1.09 million and ahtata is third with -$971k.
