Quoth Gus Hansen: Sick

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Gus Hansen is still in the event, but that's not stopping him from coming over to sweat Dag Martin Mikkelsen's table. He says he's the big stack at his table with 330,000 -- but at Dag's table, he'd be the short stack, as the stacks are massive. "Sick!" he says.
