Danish poker player Gus Hansen has made a return to the high-stakes online poker tables, after about 19 months clear of the web game, in line with a report from HighstakesDB.

Hansen was seen playing on PokerStars this week under his screen “broksi”. On Full Tilt, where Hansen played under his real name, he had fallen $20.7 million into the red lifetime in late 2014. It took him around eight years and 1.5 million hands to lose that quantity on Full Tilt. Around $17 million of these losses came between 2012 and 2014.

He’s also $1.4 million into the outlet lifetime on PokerStars, consistent with the tracking data.

The Dane was always candid about his performance, saying in early 2015 that his “tilt factor” was “about the worst within the world.”

Hansen was reportedly playing $200-$400 triple draw (limit) and limit Omaha hi-lo eight-or-better this week. He posted a small five-figure make the most of his sessions.

Not long before his return to the web tables, Hansen was playing live poker for large money in Las Vegas. Daniel Negreanu said earlier this month that he recently played in a $1,500-$3,000 mixed game with Hansen and other high-stakes regulars on the Bellagio.

In April, Hansen appeared on Good Morning Denmark where it was said that Hansen had returned to his home country “for good” after “insane bets” and a “wild lifestyle” in poker.
