Big One For One Drop List to Include also "The Great Dane"

Gus Hansen to join the charity tournament

Gus “The Great Dane” Hansen managed to get the last remaining seat in the $1 million dollar Big One for One Drop tournament scheduled for Saturday at the Rio in Las Vegas.

Hansen won a $25,000 satellite to qualify for the big event eliminating some of the top poker players.

Jason Somerville was sent home with the third prize of $400,000. Shaun Deeb and Hansen clashed in the heads up where a runner up is entitled either to an alternate seat or a million dollars prize.

Some speculations suggest that two players had a discussion before the heads-up game when they might have agreed on who would win million dollars, and who would go forward and play in the tournament for the possible main prize of $18 million.

Hansen later said that this was one of the toughest fields he had ever encountered.
