High-Stakes Online Poker: Gus Hansen Approaching $10 Million Lifetime Losses On Full TiltThe 'Gus Hansen' Screen Name The Worst Ever In Online Poker |
|
Another bad week for Gus Hansen saw him lose more than $300,000, according to tracking data from HighstakesDB. With the loss, his is now down more than $9.5 million on Full Tilt Poker over his career while playing on the site under his real name.
Full Tilt opened in 2004, and Hansen’s data goes back to 2007.
Around the summer of 2009 Hansen was sitting at about $1.7 million in profits on the site, but then went on a downswing that lasted more than a year. He was down about $10 million. However, in the fall of 2010, Hansen began one of the biggest heaters in the history of online poker. By the spring of 2011, he had erased about $6 million of those losses.
When Black Friday struck in April and Full Tilt Poker shut down that summer, Hansen had to put his upswing on hold for months and months. The site relaunched in November 2012 under new ownership, and Hansen, who had millions locked up in his account, began to play again.
It’s been horrific since then. In the span of six months, Hansen has lost $6,328,995.
Here’s a look at Hansen’s chart, via HighstakesDB.
