Gus Hansen, for the first time since 2011, is at a World Series of Poker (WSOP) final table, where he's attempting to end a lengthy bracelet drought.

The popular poker boom era high roller reached the final six players in Event #38: $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship. At last check, he was among the shortest stacks. But if he were to go on and spin it up, he'd win his second bracelet and first since 2010.
