Gus Hansen enjoyed a marvelous year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only gambler to make it to the final table in three of the events. Gus Hansen has appeared on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he bought into the game for $400, 000. You may remember one of the largest pots in high stakes poker recorded history up against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen secured a huge pot with 4 of a kind against Daniel’s full house. Hansen has earned many televised poker appearances and is considered to be one of the best bettors in the world. While wagering on web poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He frequently participates in the 200/400 NL max buy-in of $40, 000. Gus generally buys-in for the min of $16, 000 and gambles very poorly. He waits for a decent hand and then pushes all in. I believe Gus is an amazing poker player but certainly not even close to the familiar players at 200/400no limit. Unless he is broke, he has no reason to settle at the game with the minimum buy in.
Buying in for the min takes almost all of the expertise out of big stack poker. Hansen is presumed to be 1 of the best poker players anywhere in the world but he can’t buy in for the full amount. I think tv can alter our view of the real world at times. The greatest poker players anywhere in the world might be players you have will not have heard of before. Gus can be seen gambling on net poker on Full Tilt. He normally participates in high stakes omaha eight-or-better and texas holdem. Gus has proven himself as a tournament player. Can he back up his abilities in cash rounds?
