Magnus should be able to win again.

Dear Chessgames.com, please paste it there. Mar-13-06    chessgames.com: We have no way to contact the owner of that photo but we can use the one above. We also started a very thin biography; if one of our volunteer editors is up to the job it could use some revision. Apr-23-06    dakgootje: <And Hansen is a GM!> Well you cant see that if you look at the game you posted, thats just a horrible blunder... Ow and in his bio is at the moment of writing not yet that he won this years (2006) Danish Championship also Apr-23-06    Surrealist: <a noted poker player>... Any relation to the legendary Gus Hansen?
