Gus Hansen experienced a wonderful year on the World Poker Tour where he was the only participant to achieve final game in three of the tournaments. Gus Hansen has been seen on High Stakes Poker on The Game Show Network where he paid $400, 000 to play. You might remember one of the largest pots in big stakes poker history competing against Daniel Negreanu. Hansen raked in a massive pot with quads against Daniel’s full house. Hansen has earned many tv poker appearances and is considered to be one of the greatest players around the world. While competing in online poker, a different side of Hansen has emerged. He frequently participates in the 200/400 NL max buy in of $40, 000. Gus more often than not buys in for the minimum of $16, 000 and plays very weak. He sits there waiting for a decent hand and then pushes all in. I believe Gus is an outstanding poker player but not even close to the everyday players at 200/400NL. Unless he is broke, he has no reason to play at the game with the min buy in.
Buying in for the minimum takes a majority of the expertise out of deep stack poker. Gus is presumed to be 1 of the greatest poker players anywhere in the world but he can’t buy in for the full amt.. I think television can alter our perception of the real world every now and then. The greatest poker players anywhere in the world could be players you have will not have heard about. Gus can be seen playing web poker on Full Tilt. He normally competes in big stakes omaha eight-or-better and texas holdem. Gus Hansen has proven himself as a competition player. Can he back up his abilities in money games?
