Gus Hansen has $800K downswing in week of HORSE

Gus Hansen aka The Great Dane of poker, has had some pretty big swings over the last week. He was running quite profitable on the HORSE 2k/4k table, until David Singer, Chufty, and David Oppenheim began playing with Gus and took him for almost $800,000. Despite this big downswing, he has had a few profitable sessions in Pot Limit Omaha to the tune of $300K, which has offset some of his losses in the nosebleed mixed games.
