Default I play like Gus Hansen, how come I never win?

Gus Hansen is my idol! I saw him break so many people at WPT finals with absolutely nothing, drawing out on them on the river. I love to watch his comeback against Hoyt in Foxwoods and of course I tried to copy that style of play.

My hand selection is simple: I play all hands, except pocket aces. I have seen Gus crack so many aces, that I don't want to risk getting busted with them. My favorite play is to raise with 7-2o from first position. If I get called by 2-3 players I reraise and put them all in. In contrast to Gus Hansen I never flop 7-2-2 though and I never draw out on people when I am actually a 15-1 underdog. How come he wins millions of dollars while I bust out on my very first hand every single tournament?
