It has been a wild ride for Gus Hansen at the online poker tables in the last couple of weeks, but fortunately for “The Great Dane,” Monday was a significant upswing. He won $811,618 on his home site of Full Tilt Poker, the kind of day the site’s new management probably had in mind when it signed him as Full Tilt’s first poker ambassador and founding member of “The Professionals.”

The cash game tracking site HighStakesDB accounted for the action, reporting that Hansen began Monday’s run with a $374,000 thrashing of Alex “Alexonmoon” Luneau at $1,000/$2,000 heads-up 2-7 Triple Draw.

Fixed Limit Omaha 8 followed up that four-hour match, as Hansen played the role of party pooper. Butting into a game involving Patrik Antonius, “samrostan,” and Kyle “KPR16” Ray at a $2,000/$4,000 table, Hansen promptly took a chunk of change from each player, eventually standing up another $185,000 richer.

He then moved back to 2-7 Triple Draw, where he won another $250,000, much of which came from the pockets of one of Full Tilt Poker’s biggest lifetime winners, Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond. When Gus Hansen finally called it a night, he had added over $800,000 to his bankroll.

Monday’s success put Hansen into the black for the month, as he is now looking at a $560,462 profit across 159 sessions in May. The last two weeks, in particular, have been quite swingy. He has had days were he has profited $1.5 million, $600,000, and now $800,000, while he has also had huge single-day losses of $400,000, $500,000, $1.1 million, and $200,000.

Despite his positive month so far, Hansen is still the runaway all-time loser on Full Tilt Poker, having watched $8,654,476 get shipped to opposing players. On a per-session basis, though, he is not nearly as generous as the other all-time money losers. The next biggest loser at Full Tilt is “noataima,” who has dropped $7,067,935, a whopping $1.6 million less than Hansen.

Hansen lost his money over 20,990 sessions for an average loss of $412.31 per session. noataima, on the other hand, took just 436 sessions to lose $7 million, amounting to $16,210.86 per session. The results are similar as you go down the list: Hansen may have lost the most money on Full Tilt Poker, but he certainly worked hard to do so. Nobody in the bottom 20 even comes close to the volume that Hansen has racked up. The highest session count is from “PixKim,” who has lost $1,950,192 over 4,814 sessions, or $405.11 per session, just slightly better than Hansen.

In 2013, Hansen is down $2,243,204. In fact, he has not been in the black at all this year.
