In some evening poker action, high stakes professional Gus Hansen faced off against Phil “OMGClayaiken” Galfond in a heads-up game of $500/$1000 Pot-Limit Omaha. Hansen actually left the table immediately after losing his $50K stake on the very first hands played. But he would return around 50 minutes later to win back over $108K in just 24 hands against Galfond. Hansen then, predictably left the table once again — much to Galfond’s dismay — with a total $58K+ win.
