Between 10 a.m. EDT Friday and 10 a.m. EDT on Saturday, Gus Hansen won the dream figure of $ 1.82 million mainly playing heads-up at $ 500/1000 of pot-limit Omaha. Playing on up to four tables simultaneously, Hansen has drawn most of its profits by two players: $ 890′000 Tom “durrrr” Dwan and $ 735′000 Di “Urindanger” Dang. Among others who wanted to experiment with Hansen paying dearly for the chance, there were David “MR B 2 U SON” Benyamine, Patrik Antonius, Hac “trex313″ Dang and Sami “LarsLuzak” Kelopuro.

Dwan, who has now recovered about $ 4 million lost this year, has spent most of last week to play live at Bobby’s Room at the Bellagio.
